Crab Cakes

Ok so this week I was a little spoiled since I am using the crab cake recipe from Dinner Done and I just so happened to have some in my freezer.  So all I had to do was cook them!  I am very thankful to have found a place like Dinner Done (http://www.dinnerdone.com/) and grateful that they shared the recipe with me.



Ingredients & Preparation

1.   In a large bowl, whisk two eggs. 

2.   Add to the eggs:

·         ¼ cup pimentos, drained

·         ¼ cup green onion

·         ¼ cup diced onion

·         ¼ cup mayonnaise

·         1 Tbls fresh parsley

·         1 Tbls Old Bay Seasoning

·         ½ tsp pepper

·         1 cup Panko breadcrumbs           

3.   Gently fold in 1 can crab meat using a large spoon.

4.    Form the patties.  Place patties in pan.  If patties aren’t holding together, add a little more mayo or an egg to the mix.  If they are too wet, add more Panko. Makes around 8 patties.

5.   These are best sautéed, but if you think you will be baking them, you may want to sprinkle a little extra Panko on each crab cake for extra crunch.

You can make these and freeze them and then thaw as needed. Mmmm good!

Next week we are packing the car and traveling two hours north of D.C. to the city of brotherly love!
