Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a bowl, combine the crab meat with mayonnaise, mustard, paprika, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, green onions, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to broil. Brush both sides of the bread slices with half the melted butter. Place on a baking sheet and broil until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove from the oven and flip the bread over; spread the crab mixture almost to the edges. Sprinkle with grated cheese.

  3. In a medium bowl, toss the asparagus with the remaining melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the spears in a row on the toast, then arrange the cheese slices across the center of the asparagus.
  4. Return to oven and roast until asparagus is tender and cheese is melted, 4 more minutes.
