Description
Translated "Crab-It's so good" pronounced (say-see-bone), this crab dish is a crowd pleaser for sure! Be prepared for a well seasoned appetizer that has layers of flavors. You can use a baguette or any type of crusty bread as your base. Many thanks to Southern Living Magazine for inspiring me to make this.
