2 scallions, thinly sliced |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice plus wedges for garnish |
1 1/2 teaspoons old bay seasoning |
1/2 jalapeño, seeded, finely chopped |
1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over |
1 1/4 cup panko (japanese breadcrumbs), divided |
1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 head bibb lettuce |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
Directions:
1. Whisk first 7 ingredients in a medium bowl. Add crab; fold to blend. Stir in 3/4 cup panko, chives, salt, and pepper. Divide into 6 equal portions. Form each into 1 -thick patties.
