BEST-EVER CRAB CAKES WITH GREEN TOMATO SLAW RECIPE

Steps:

• Prepare the Crab Cakes: Place first 11 ingredients and 1 3⁄4 cups of the panko in a large bowl, and gently combine.
• Shape crabmeat mixture into 6 (3-inch) cakes, about 6 1⁄2 ounces each. Sprinkle remaining 1⁄2 cup panko on a large plate; gently transfer cakes to plate, pressing both sides in panko. Cover and chill until slightly firm, about 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Gently reshape 3 Crab Cakes, and place in hot oil. Cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a wire rack set in a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining oil and cakes. Place baking sheet in preheated oven, and bake cakes until heated through, about 10 minutes.
• Prepare the Green Tomato Slaw: Toss together all slaw ingredients, and serve over Crab Cakes.
