2 teaspoons unsalted butter

Mix crab, egg, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, chives, mustard, lemon juice, celery seed, onion powder, pepper and hot sauce in a large bowl. Form into 6 patties.
Heat oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until the butter stops foaming. Cook the patties until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.

Makes 6 servings (you can freeze whatever is left)

    I wonder if you could broil these, and eliminate the frying part? That would cut down the cholesterol, no?

    I can't have the breadcrumbs...sigh.

    I'm sure you can broil them.

    You can use whole wheat bread crumbs.
    Here's the recipe:

    2 sl whole wheat bread
    1 TB dried basil
    1 ts dried thyme
    1 TB chopped fresh chervil
    1/4 ts minced garlic
    1 ts minced shallots

    A good way to use Stale bread, these bread crumbs can
    be stored in the freezer. Makes 1 cup. 7 Cals per Tbsp

    I actually can't have the wheat, but I'll experiment with corn meal...and let you know if it works.

    Ok, so I made these today and they were D~LISH!

    I used egg substitute, regular breadcrumbs, regular olive oil, 2 cans of fancy white crabmeat & 1 pink....

    So much less calories & carbs and other things but the sodium is higher... is it b/c I used regular breadcrumbs?
