This is basically a Crab Salad that you are going to put on a roll. Call it a crab roll, crab slider, call it whatever you want, but make sure that you make some!! Don’t be scared either, this is super easy and they are so amazing!
I got my crab legs by accident at Kroger in the clearance section. They had some crab legs marked down, my husband loves crab so I picked them up really cheap. When I got home I searched for some recipes and decided on crab salad, which then ended up between 2 pieces of bread! Now, I look every time I am in the store for crab marked down!
The ingredients are very basic and most likely you will have everything on hand.
Fill a large pan with 1 to 2 inches of water. Bring to boil. Add crab legs. Boil for approximately 5 minutes. Remove crab legs from water. Set aside and let cool.
Use hands to break lobster apart at joints. If you can pull crabmeat from shell without breaking further, go ahead. Otherwise, take knife and make one continuous cut down each shell. Pry shell open with fingers and remove crabmeat.
Cut crabmeat into various sizes. Place crabmeat in medium mixing bowl. Drizzle 1 tbsp. melted butter over crabmeat. Stir. Add diced green onion, diced tomatoes, mayonnaise, freshly squeezed lemon juice, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir. Place in refrigerator.
Dice green onion and tomato into small pieces. Slice lemon in half. Set aside.
Lay 8 slices multi-grain bread on aluminum foil sheet. Take a round drinking glass and press down over each slice. This will create slider size top and bottom buns. Drizzle 1 tbsp. melted butter on top of slices. Place in oven for 3 to 4 minutes or until just crispy (rotating sides halfway through). Remove bread from oven.
Scoop crabmeat mixture onto bottom slices of bread. Add top buns. Plate your crab sliders onto serving dishes and enjoy this seaside staple!
