Instructions

1. Make the garlic butter: melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat (or in the microwave). Take it off the heat and stir in the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt and black pepper.
2. If the crab is pre-cooked and chilled, remove the shell with kitchen shears and a small fork, then break the meat into bite-sized pieces in a large bowl.
3. Heat a frying pan over medium heat with a couple of tablespoons of the garlic butter.
4. Add the crab and toss gently in the butter for a few minutes, just until hot and steaming. Do not overcook, or it becomes rubbery.
5. Season the crab with the chives, dill and parsley and add the juice of half a lemon.
6. Meanwhile, place the brioche buns on a baking sheet and broil for about 3 minutes, until warm.
7. Stir the remaining herbs into the rest of the garlic butter.
8. Fill each warm bun with crab, top with garlic butter and squeeze over a little lemon juice. Serve right away.
