A fusion of comfort food and Asian-inspired flavors, the Wonton Crab Grilled Cheese is a gourmet twist on the classic sandwich. Fresh lump crab meat is tossed with creamy cheese, scallions, and a hint of garlic, then layered between crispy wonton wrappers and buttery toasted bread. The result is a golden, crunchy exterior with a gooey, savory filling that bursts with flavor in every bite. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or indulgent meal, this sandwich pairs beautifully with a light dipping sauce or a hot bowl of soup.
