Serves 10

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb Crab meat
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 Large Eggs, yolk only
  • 1 tbsp Limes, juice
  • 1/2 cup Fire roasted red peppers, finely chopped
  • 3/4 cup Fresh green onion, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs
  • 8 oz Plain kettle chips, finely crushed
  • 1/3 cup Grapeseed oil, or as needed for frying
  • 8.5 oz White wine garlic butter sauce

Instructions

  1. Place crab meat in a colander. Rinse gently and pick over for any pieces of shell. Remove any excess moisture with a paper towel.
  2. Add mayonnaise, mustard, egg yolks and lime juice to a bowl. Whisk together then gently fold in crab meat, red peppers, green onions, cilantro, bread crumbs and half of potato chips.
  3. Using ¼ cupful of crab mixture for each cake, form into sixteen 2 ½ -inch-diameter cakes (or whatever size suits you). Place remaining potato chips in a shallow dish. Press each cake into chips, turning to coat evenly.
  4. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet on medium-high. Working in batches, cook crab cakes until golden brown and heated through, about 4 minutes per side, adding more oil as needed. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  5. Heat white wine garlic butter sauce gently in a saucepan. Spoon over crab cakes and serve immediately.
