Description

A delightful crab salad featuring jumbo lump crab meat, creamy dressing, and zesty Sriracha, served in toasted pretzel rolls for a taste of summer by the water.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb Jumbo Lump Crab
  • 2 tbsp Scallions (Sliced)
  • 1 tbsp Parsley (Chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 3 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp Sriracha
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning
  • Juice of 1 Lemon
  • 1 package Pretzel Slider Rolls
  • 2 tbsp Butter (Melted)
  • 1 cup Iceberg Lettuce (Shredded)


Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the jumbo lump crab, scallions, parsley, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, Sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay, and lemon juice.
  2. Mix carefully to keep the crab meat intact.
  3. Cover the salad and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
  4. While the salad chills, melt the butter and brush it on the pretzel slider rolls.
  5. Toast the rolls in a warm oven until golden brown.
  6. Lay down shredded iceberg lettuce on the bottom half of the toasted slider rolls.
  7. Spoon a generous amount of the crab salad onto each slider.
  8. Close with the top half of the pretzel roll and serve.

Notes

For milder flavor, adjust the amount of Sriracha. Leftover salad can be stored in an airtight container for 1-2 days.
