Gary's Crab Nacho Plate

1/2 LB Lump crab meat
1/2 can refried or black beans
Chopped onion
Sliced Jalapeno (fresh)
1/2 cup Sour Cream
Shredded Colby Jack cheese
1/2 can of diced tomatoes with green chilies (Rotel)
Tortilla Chips
Old Bay Seasoning
Butter


Put skillet on stove under low heat.
Coat skillet with butter, add crab meat, onion and jalapeno. You are only trying to warm the meat, not "cook" everything.
Mix in Old Bay and a little more butter as you go.

On a large plate, spread the beans across whole plate, then heat the plate in microwave.
Spread the cheese over the beans and heat in microwave to melt cheese.
Put contents of skillet on top of beans and cheese.
Add sour cream and diced tomatoes.
Use the tortilla chips to scoop up the crabby bean goodness.

I don't recommend using salsa because it will mask the flavor of the crab, and the diced tomatoes are there as the replacement for salsa.

This dish goes great with Miller High Life and football.

That looks great Gary!

Next week I'm going to make these damn crab cakes! Tired of hearing how great they are!

Never had them until I bought some mini-cakes last week, mostly because of you guys liking them so much. They were tasty and I liked the sauce. I bet making them from scratch they're even better!

I got the jambalaya down!

Keep up the fine cooking!

I have that EXACT same dish set .... Food Network :shrug:

I got the midnight munchies last night and fired up the following:

bought some backfin crab that was on sale for $5.99 lb:0074

sauteed it in a little butter, lemon juice, smoked garlic and a little Tony Chachere extra spice

whipped up 4 eggs and put in hot pan with a little bacon grease and melted butter to coat

as eggs firmed, put the marinated crab meat and shredded Mexican cheese on the eggs and flipped

then put a little Louisiana Hot Sauce and Old Bay on top after completing...one word YUMMY:00hour

awesome...


stock up buddy...


you can freeze it for those Jan. and Feb. munchies..

stuck in the snowbound house and nay a crab sandwich ..:facepalm:

 

[dunclock]

I also bought me some 100% Jumbo Lump crab meat that I will be making awesome crab cakes this week .... will post final details as I change em up just a little each time but they are always at least 95% pure crab as I use very little bread crumbs and mayo...the egg does a good job of holding together

the backfin is awesome for omelets, pastas and salads especially at $5.99:0074

I didn't use bread crumbs, which made them soupy. Next time going to cut mayo to 1/4c and use a touch of bread crumbs.
