Nonstick cooking spray
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 TBS fresh lemon juice
Dash hot sauce
1/2 tsp old bay
1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1 scallion, including green top, finely chopped
1 pound lump crab, picked over for cartilage
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 tsp salt
ground pepper

Preheat oven to 400. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl mix together the egg, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, old by seasoning and hot sauce. Stir in the bell pepper and scallion. Gently fold in crab, 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs and salt & pepper to taste. Put remaining bread crumbs in shallow pan.

Divide crab mixture into 8 mounds. Shape 1 mound into a round and coat in bread crumbs. Transfer to the prepared pan and flatten the crab cake to form a patty about 1 inch high. Repeat to form the remaining.

Back until golden on the bottom, about 10 minutes. Gently flip crab cakes and cook until the second side is golden, 5 to 10 minutes longer.

Thanks for the recipe. I see you get 8 crab cakes out of it, better than paying at least $20 around here
for a dinner with only 2 cakes . Will surely try it. :thumbsup:

Sounds like a deeeeelicious recipe.... If I ever have that CRAVING for crab cakes I can go to the local Supermarket ( Stater Bros ) and get my cakes for $ 2.97 each... I usually get 3-4 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D But I will be nice to make my own though, I was a cook for about 12 yrs and the recipe does sounds GREAT!!!!
