1 dash cayenne pepper |
2 (6 ounce) cans crabmeat |
1 egg, beaten |
1 cup seasoned dry bread crumb |
3 tablespoons butter |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine red pepper, green onion, mayo, lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
2. Stir in crab, egg, and 1/3 c of the breadcrumbs (may be sticky).
3. Divide and form mixture into 4 balls.
4. Roll crab balls in remaining breadcrumbs.
