INGREDIENTS

1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Tony Chachere’s Louisiana Pepper Sauce
1 teaspoon Tony Chachere’s More Spice Creole Seasoning
2/3 cup crackers, crushed
1 pound lump crab meat
nonstick spray
2 tablespoons butter, melted
8 sweet Hawaiian style slider buns or dinner rolls
2 lemons, sliced into wedges
parsley, chopped for garnish

PREPARATION

In a medium bowl, mix egg, mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire, lemon juice, Tony Chachere’s Louisiana Pepper Sauce and Tony Chachere’s More Spice Creole Seasoning together until well blended.
Add cracker crumbs and crab meat to the mixture, then gently fold all the ingredients together, with a rubber spatula. Try not to break the lumps of crab meat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400 ºF. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick spray. Using a tablespoon, scoop a heaping portion of the mixture, the size of a golf ball. Using your hands, gently form the mixture into a ball and place on pan. Drizzle melted butter over the top of each crab cake.
Bake for 12 minutes or until lightly golden.
Slice rolls in half, place hot crab cakes inside, then add tartar sauce, lettuce, tomato and pickle and garnish with lemon wedges and chopped parsley.
