4. SautΓ© the Chili-Garlic Base: In the same skillet, add 1/2 tbsp olive oil and sautΓ© minced garlic and chilies over medium heat for 1–2 minutes until fragrant but not burnt. Watch carefully to avoid bitterness.
5. Fold in the Crab: Gently fold fresh crab meat into the chili-garlic mixture. Toss carefully for 1–2 minutes to warm through and evenly distribute spice. Season with salt and white pepper. Remove from heat.
6. Build the Toast: Spread 2 tbsp of the Greek yogurt-mayo blend on each warm toasted slice. Top with equal portions of the warm crab-chili mixture, dividing evenly.
7. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle toasted panko breadcrumbs over each toast for crunch. Top with sliced green onions and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately while warm and crispy.
