Remoulade Sauce
Directions
In a large bowl add the mayo, egg, chives, shallot, lemon juice, lemon zest, King Craw, hot sauce, and Worcestershire. Stir well to combine and add the panko bread crumbs.
Gently fold in the lump crab meat. Then use your hands to measure out about 1/2 cup of the crab mixture. Shape into cake like patties and place on a sheet pan lined with parchment or butcher paper. Rest the crab cakes for 20-30 minutes in the refrigerator before cooking to allow the cakes to set.
To cook: fire up a flat top griddle or use a cast iron pan over medium heat. Add a little butter to the cooking surface and gently place the crab cakes on one at a time. Cook for 3 minutes and carefully flip each cake over. Cook until the bottom side is golden brown - about 2-3 more minutes and transfer to a platter. Garnish with remoulade sauce, fresh chives, and a squeeze of lemon or Build a Poboy!
