Crab Cakes Quick Dinner Recipe


Quick Dinner RecipeYou can make this quick dinner recipe using fresh or canned crab meat. If using canned crab meat to make the crab cakes, drain off any liquid prior to using.

Serve this quick dinner recipe with lemon wedges or place several crab cakes on a bed of wilted fresh greens and drizzle with a oil and vinegar salad dressing. You can also cook the crab cakes in smaller patties and serve as an appetizer. Try our Warm Salmon Salad for another quick dinner recipe using seafood.

1 pound fresh lump crab meat
1 egg, well beaten
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
8 scallions finely chopped
1 1 2 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
Seal salt and pepper to taste

In a medium bowl, combine the crab meat, egg, mustard,scallions, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, and fresh bread crumbs. Mix gently until well blended, being careful not to break the crab meat up into small pieces. If the mixture is too dry, add a small amount of heavy cream as needed. Shape into six patties. Place the remaining 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs on a glass plate and coat the crab cakes on both sides with the crumbs.

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the crab cakes until browned, then carefully turn and brown on the other side.
