I found this recipe just the other day and have not tried it, though it looks pretty easy. I plan to give it a try.
Ingredients:
1 slightly beaten egg
1/2 cup plain yogurt (could sub with lo-fat)
2 tablesppons mayonnaise or salad dressing (could sub. with lo-fat)
1 tablespoon snipped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoion prepared mustard
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 lb. crabmeat, drained, flaked, cartilage removed
1/4 cup finely crushed saltine crackers (i'll probably use ritz)
nonstick spray coating
1 medium tomato, sliced
lemon wedges
Directions:
1. In a medium mixing bowl combine egg, 1/4 cup yogurt, mayonnaise or salad dressing, parsley, worcestershire sauce, mustard, paprika, pepper. Stir in crabmeat and crushed crackers.
2. Shape crab mixture into five 3-inch patties.
3. Spray a shallow baking pan with nonstick spray coating. Arrange patties in pan. Broil 4-6 inches from heat for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Do not turn patties during broiling.
4. Serve crab cakes on tomato slices with remaining yogurt. Garnish with lemon wedges.
5. Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare crab patties; cover and chill up to 8 hours. Broil as above.
6. **I plan to try this recipe under the broiler first, but I'd also like to try frying them and see which I like better.
