Dungeness Crab Grilled Cheese

Dungeness Crab Grilled Cheese

Wild Dungeness crab mixed gently with mayo, Old Bay, lemon and green onion, so the lumps stay whole, then layered with sharp white cheddar between buttered sourdough. Eight to ten minutes in the skillet over medium, flipped halfway through. It makes two, and a panini press works just as well.
