Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 shallot, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon capers
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 eggs
1 serrano chile, seeded and finely chopped
1 pound lump crabmeat, shredded
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • For the remoulade: Pulse the shallots and capers in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the mayonnaise, chives, mustard, smoked paprika, salt and pepper; pulse until well combined. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust. (The remoulade will keep, refrigerated, for 4 days. It is best made a day ahead.)
  • For the crab cakes: Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and peppers and saute until soft, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, chiles, crabmeat, 1 cup of the panko, mayonnaise, chives, parsley, salt, pepper and the cooled vegetables. Gently mix until well blended. Pack the crab mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup, then gently tap out into your hand and form into a patty. Place the patty on a baking sheet and repeat with the rest of the crab mixture. Spread the remaining 1 cup panko on a large plate. Dredge the crab cakes in panko on all sides.
  • Melt another 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. When hot, add the crab cakes in batches, flattening them a bit with the back of a spatula. Cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Between batches, add another tablespoon of butter and olive oil to the pan.
  • Place the browned crab cakes on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until sizzling and heated through.
  • Serve the crab cakes with remoulade sauce on the side.

The crab cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

The crab cakes were a bit too greasy for my liking. I think I would use less butter next time.

These crab cakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more Old Bay seasoning next time.

These crab cakes were absolutely delicious! The crab meat was fresh and flaky, and the spices were perfectly balanced. The remoulade sauce was also amazing - it had just the right amount of heat and tang. I will definitely be making this recipe again
