CRAB CAKE SANDWICHES
"While it's in the oven, I prepare Crab Cake Sandwiches." Yvonne continues. She originally created the golden cakes to use up some leftover crab, but you can make them anytime by simply using convenient canned crab. "Alan loves them," she notes. "I've served them to family and friends, and they always ask for the recipe. "I've also used the crab mixture to stuff mushroom caps and bake them as an appetizer."

THE BEST CRAB CAKES
When we set out to make the "best" crab cakes, opinions in the test kitchen were strong and varied. But we could all agree on plenty of fresh, high-quality crabmeat with very little filler. After some tinkering, we created these decadent cakes-generously sized and highly seasoned-with plenty of lemon juice, fresh herbs and spices. The jumbo lump crabmeat is front and center, so splurge on the best and freshest you can find.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the crab cakes: Gently fold together the crabmeat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, chives, Dijon mustard, seafood seasoning, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper and the juice and zest of one lemon in a large bowl. Refrigerate the crab mixture for 15 minutes to firm up; this allows the breadcrumbs to absorb some of the liquid, helping the crab cakes bind together.
- Meanwhile, make the tartar sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, dill pickles, capers, chives, zest and juice of 1 lemon in a medium bowl and mix until combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Scoop heaping half cups of the crab mixture and pat into 2 1/2-inch wide patties. Lightly press them together so they do not fall apart while cooking. You should have 8 patties.
- Heat 3 tablespoons unsalted butter and 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crab cakes to the pan and cook until golden, about 2 minutes, then flip using a flat metal spatula. Continue to cook until lightly golden, about 1 1/2 minutes then transfer the pan to the oven. Cook until the crab cakes are completely heated through, about 10 minutes.
- Serve the crab cakes with the tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

Tips for Making the Best Crab Cakes Sandwiches:
- Use fresh crab meat. Fresh crab meat has a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen crab meat. If you can't find fresh crab meat, frozen crab meat will work, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- Use a variety of crab meat. Different types of crab meat have different flavors and textures. Using a variety of crab meat will give your crab cakes more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't overmix the crab cakes. Overmixing the crab cakes will make them tough. Gently mix the crab meat, bread crumbs, eggs, and seasonings until just combined.
- Form the crab cakes into patties. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to scoop the crab cake mixture onto a greased baking sheet. Use your hands to form the crab cake mixture into patties that are about 3 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick.
- Cook the crab cakes. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the crab cakes and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the crab cakes. Serve the crab cakes on a toasted bun with your favorite toppings, such as tartar sauce, lemon wedges, and lettuce.
