Yield: 8 crab cakes
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 pound lump crab meat; 1/2 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs; 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper; 1/4 cup finely chopped green onion; 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt; 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard; 1 clove garlic, minced; 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice; 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning; 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the lump crab meat, whole wheat breadcrumbs, red bell pepper, and green onion.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, and black pepper until well blended.
Pour the yogurt mixture over the crab meat mixture and gently fold everything together until just combined. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.
Form the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, pressing firmly to hold their shape.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes in batches, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the crab cakes from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the Healthy Crab Cakes warm with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a dollop of Greek yogurt or your favorite dipping sauce.
