Ingredients:
2 lbs fresh lump crabmeat
1/2 cup minced green onion
1/2 cup minced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon old bay seasoning
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 dash worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons butter
Directions:
1. RInse drain, and flake crabmeat, being careful not to break up lumps, remove any bits of shell.
2. Saute green onion and bell pepper in hot oil in a large nonstick skillet 8 minutes or until tender.
3. Stir together green onion mixture, breadcrumbs, and next 6 ingredients. Gently fold in crabmeat. Shape mixture into 36 (1 1/2 ) patties, about 1 1/2 tablespoons each. Place on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet; cover and chill 2-8 hours. Can make up to one week in advance and freeze on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. Thaw overnight.
