Crab Rangoon Will Instantly Upgrade Your Grilled Cheese Sandwich
By Michael Serrur
For those who will settle for nothing less than a truly unique and explosive grilled cheese sandwich, then a crab rangoon-inspired grilled cheese is what you need.
A crab rangoon is a wonton wrapper stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese, scallions, and surimi — also known as imitation crab meat — and then fried until crispy.
For this recipe, you simply have to dice your imitation crab meat finely and add a heaping scoop of cream cheese along with some scallion slices.
You can zhuzh up the mixture with a dash of soy sauce, sesame oil, or mirin. Spoon the filling onto one piece of bread and slather the other slice with sweet chili sauce.
The sweet chili sauce will add some sweet relief to the rich filling. Finally, throw the sandwich into a hot skillet and cook until the outside is properly crisped.
