Preparation:
  • Sauté peppers and onions in butter until onions are transparent.
  • Completely cool mixture before adding to the crab meat.
  • Add remaining ingredients except for the bread crumbs, stirring lightly to keep crab lumps together.
  • Add the bread crumbs slowly until most of the moisture is soaked up.
  • Scoop into 2-ounce portions and form into cakes, then lightly press into toasted bread crumbs.
  • Sauté in oil at 350 degrees F until cakes are brown and heated in middle.
