Traditional Crab Cakes Hcg Phase 2 Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the crab, bread crumbs, egg, mayonnaise, vegetables and seasonings. Shape into 8 patties. Broil or cook patties in a cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet in oil for 4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. If desired, serve with lemon. Freeze option: Freeze cooled crab cakes in freezer containers, separating layers with waxed paper. To use, reheat crab cakes on a baking sheet in a preheated 325° oven until heated through.

Steps:

• Grind grissini (or melba toast) into powder and place in a small dish. In a bowl combine crabmeat and remaining ingredients. Mix well and form into patties. Coat each side of patty with grissini powder. Brown in a non-stick skillet over MED heat for 3 minutes each side or place on George Forman for 4-5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté bell peppers until softened. Cool peppers. In a food processor grind bread into fine crumbs.

On baking sheet bake all crab cakes 6 minutes, or until heated through.
