Step by Step Method
CRABMEAT & EGGS
Step 1
Saute the crabmeat in butter in a large skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Stir in the salt and pepper. Set aside and keep warm.
Step 2
Lightly grease a large saucepan; add water to a depth of 2 inches. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and maintain a light simmer. Break eggs, one at a time into a saucer. Slip the eggs, one at a time, into the water, holding the saucer close to the water. Simmer 5 minutes or until set. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and trim the eggs, if desired.
Step 3
To serve, spoon a small amount of crabmeat mixture onto 6 individual serving plates. Top each with 2 eggs; spoon remaining crabmeat over the eggs. Serve with warm spicy cream sauce.
