Yield Serves 10 as first-course

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup plain dry breadcrumbs
1 pound fresh crabmeat, drained well, picked over
1/4 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 large egg, beaten to blend
1/4 cup vegetable oil
12 cups mixed baby greens
Lemon Vinaigrette
Additional chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Line baking sheet with waxed paper. Place 1/2 cup breadcrumbs in shallow dish. Mix crabmeat, mayonnaise, 3 tablespoons chives, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, hot pepper sauce and remaining 1/4 cup breadcrumbs in medium bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in egg. Using 2 tablespoons for each, form crab mixture into twenty 1 1/2-inch-diameter cakes. Coat crab cakes with breadcrumbs in dish, pressing breadcrumbs to adhere.

Tips:

  • For the freshest crab cakes, use fresh crab meat. If you're using canned crab meat, be sure to drain it well and pick out any shells or cartilage.
  • To make sure the crab cakes hold together, be gentle when mixing the ingredients. Over-mixing can make them tough.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the crab cakes. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Serve the crab cakes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
  • For the ginger-citrus vinaigrette, use fresh ginger and citrus juice for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have mixed greens, you can use any type of salad greens you like.

Conclusion:
