  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 large firm-ripe tomato, cored and chopped
  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chiles

  1. In a 10- to 12-inch pan over medium-high heat, stir oil, garlic, and onion often until onion begins to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add tomato and chilies; simmer until tomatoes are soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat; add crab.
  2. Meanwhile, stack tortillas, wrap in foil, and warm in a 350 degrees F oven, about 10 minutes.
