Delight in these golden crab patties, enhanced with a zesty sauce for a flavorful twist on a classic dish.
Sauté the onion, bell pepper, and celery in butter until softened.
Ensure the vegetables are finely chopped for even cooking and better texture in the patties.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with the crab meat, egg, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the crab meat into small pieces.
Shape the mixture into patties of your desired size and coat them with breadcrumbs.
Refrigerate the patties for 15 minutes to help them hold their shape during cooking.
Heat a skillet with a thin layer of oil over medium heat and cook the patties for about 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, lemon juice, and hot sauce to create the zesty sauce.
Adjust the hot sauce quantity to your preferred spice level.
Serve the patties warm with the zesty sauce on the side.
Garnish with fresh parsley or lemon wedges for added presentation.
