LOBSTER AND CRAB CAKES
Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl combine all bread crumb mixture ingredients.
- Poach lobster in water with lemon, basil and sea salt. (Rule of thumb is 5 minutes per pound.) Remove lobster from water and chill in ice water. Remove meat and shell and dice meat. Lightly pick through crabmeat.
- Add crab and lobster to mixture and gently fold mixture until combines. Lightly press mixture down in bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Form the crab cakes in to 3-ounce portions about a silver dollar wide and 1 1/2 inches tall.
- To a large saute pan, add enough light olive oil to fill about 1/2 inch high. Bring to 350 degrees F and add crab cakes. Cook until golden brown on both sides.
