Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs, divided
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fat free mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 8 ounces lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lemon, quartered

Instructions

  1. Combine 1/3 cup panko and next 10 ingredients (through egg)in a large bowl, stirring well. Add crab; stir gently just until combined. Place remaining 1/3 cup panko in a shallow dish. Using wet hands, shape crab mixture into 4 equal balls. Coat balls in panko. Gently flatten balls to form 4 (4 inch) patties.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add patties; cook 3minutes on each side or until golden. Serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

Taken from Cooking Light Variation is to substitute salmon for crab. Replace crab with 8 ounces cooked, flaked salmon.
