Crab Cakes

Lettuce, Tomato, and Bacon

Lemon-Pepper Mayo

Toasted Roll

Method

Crab Cakes

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Cake Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chopped green onions, bread crumbs, beaten egg, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Crab Cakes

    Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into patties, about 1 inch thick. Place the formed patties on a plate, cover, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.

  3. 3

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the crab cakes in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from skillet and keep warm.

Lettuce, Tomato, and Bacon

  1. 4

    Cook the Bacon

    In the same skillet, add the bacon strips and cook until crispy, about 4-6 minutes on each side. Once done, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves. Slice the tomato into thick slices.

Lemon-Pepper Mayo

  1. 6

    Make the Lemon-Pepper Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix together 0.5 cup of mayonnaise, lemon juice, and black pepper. Stir until well combined and set aside.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 7

    Toast the Rolls

    Slice the sandwich rolls in half and toast them lightly in the same skillet until golden brown.

  2. 8

    Build the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of lemon-pepper mayo on the bottom half of each toasted roll. Layer with the cooked crab cake, crispy bacon, lettuce, and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the roll.
