Crab Cakes
You know what makes the best crab cakes??? When there’s more lump crab meat than cake! That’s exactly how I make these pan seared crab cakes served with a zesty remoulade sauce. Utilizing both lump and claw meat to pack in that rich flavor and minimally bound with fillers, these crab cakes are guaranteed to please!!

Instructions
Step 1
Small dice onion and bell pepper. Mince garlic and thinly slice green onions.
Step 2
Sauté in butter, onion and pepper until clear. Add in garlic and green onion and cook 5 more minutes.

Make sauce by blending garlic with lemon juice. After, add in remaining wet ingredients and blend. Add green onions and parsley and blend again.
Step 4
Place all crab meat in shallow bowl and pick through to remove any shells.
Step 5
Add cooked vegetables to a bowl and mix with mayo, hot sauce and dry seasonings. Mix mixture well to minimize mixing once added to meat.
Step 6
Layer crab in a thin layer and sprinkle on Panko. Spread on seasoned mixture and gently fold to incorporate evenly. Be careful not to break up meat and only mix to combined.
Step 7
Form cakes or patties out of mixture. Remember we didn’t add a lot of binder on purpose, so these won’t hold like a hamburger. Work quick and place them in the fridge to form up.
Step 8
When ready to cook, preheat pan with butter until hot and butter is frothy.
Step 9
Pass cakes in Panko and gently pat in to form a light coating.
Step 10
Sauté until golden on both sides. Be careful when flipping and plating because they will want to break up.
