By Deeee

Ingredients

• 1 lb cooked crab meat, picked through for shells and cartilage
• 3/4 cup bread crumbs
• 6 scallions, minced
• 1/4 cup low-fat milk
• 3 tbsp reduced-calorie mayo
• 2 tbsp minced parsley
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp white pepper
• 3 tbsp flour
• 1 tbsp butter
• 2 1/2 cups mixed gr lettuce leaves

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl combine the crab meat, bread crumbs, scallions, milk, mayo, parsley, salt and pepper. With moistened hands, form into 8 small round cakes; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Place the flour on a sheet of wax paper; lightly coat each cake on both sides.

In a large nonstick skillet, melt the butter. Cook the crab cakes until golden brown and crispy, 4-5 minutes on each side. Line a platter with the greens and top with the crab cakes.
