Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Lump crab meat
- 120 grams Panko breadcrumbs
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 units Brioche burger buns
- 6 tablespoons Mayonnaise (for herb mayo)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Chives, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 2 cups Mixed salad greens
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the lump crab meat, panko breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, egg, Dijon mustard, lemon zest, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid breaking up the crab meat too much.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a burger patty. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
While the patties chill, prepare the herb mayo. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, dill, chives, and lemon juice. Cover and set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, cook the crab patties for about 4 minutes per side or until golden brown and heated through. Handle them gently when flipping to avoid breaking.
Toast the brioche buns lightly in the skillet or in a toaster for extra flavor.
To assemble the burgers, spread a generous layer of herb mayo on the bottom half of each bun. Add a handful of mixed salad greens, a crab patty, a slice of tomato, and then the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Crab Burger with Herb Mayo!
