ISO ideas for lump crab - not crabcakes though

High Cheese

Saucier
I have a 1lb container of lump crab that I would like to use as an entree but not in the form of a crabcake. Any idears?
 
If I could afford a pound of crab meat, I'd turn it into crabcakes. But you said you didn't want to do that, didn't you? I like them fancy little appetizers made with crab meat in in a white sauce. Or just warm it up and eat it with a fork. That might be pretty good. I'm from Ohio where we don't have edible crabs, so I won't be much help.
 
How 'bout a crab marinara? Just an idea. Or Scampi with alittle cream added? Or like the clam chowda recipe here but with crab?
I'm not thinking too good since you mentioned NOT crab cakes, which now that you mentioned them...that's going to be my dinner, maybe with garlic and mushroom green beans and some mashed tates.
 
There ya go....crab pizza. I keep stealing everyone's ideas and converting.
homecook just mentioned lobsta pizza.
