2 teaspoons soy sauce

1 large Land O Lakes® Egg, slightly beaten

1 pound lump crabmeat

2 cups finely crushed saltine crackers

3 tablespoons Land O Lakes® Butter

How to make

STEP 1

Heat oven to 400°F.
STEP 2

Combine all sauce ingredients in bowl; mix well. Set aside.
STEP 3

Combine green onion, sour cream, ginger root, garlic, soy sauce and egg in another bowl. Stir in crabmeat and 1 cup cracker crumbs until well mixed.
STEP 4

Shape level tablespoons of mixture into 1 1/2-inch patties; flatten slightly. Place remaining 1 cup crushed crackers in shallow dish. Coat both sides of each patty in crackers.
STEP 5

Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place one-third of crab cakes in pan. Cook, turning once, 4-6 minutes or until golden brown on each side. Repeat two more times with remaining butter, olive oil and crab cakes.
STEP 6

Place browned crab cakes onto baking sheets. Bake 5-8 minutes or until heated through. Serve immediately with sour cream sauce.

Tip #1

Patties can be made up to 8 hours ahead. Prepare crab mixture, make patties and coat each in crushed crackers. Place in resealable plastic food container between sheets of waxed paper. Cover tightly; refrigerate. Just before serving, cook and bake crab cakes as directed above.

Tip #2

Crab cakes may be made ahead and frozen up to 2 weeks. Prepare crab cakes as directed; cool completely. Place in resealable food storage containers between sheets of waxed paper; seal tightly. Thaw at room temperature 20 minutes. To reheat, place crab cakes onto baking sheets; cover with foil. Bake in 350°F oven 10-12 minutes or until heated through. Serve immediately.
