![]() Makes 6 crab cakes, enough to serve 3 adults as a main course. Serve them with crinkle fries, mashed potatoes or sweet potato fries and corn on the cob for a delicious dinner! Crab Cakes Ingredients: 1 large egg 2½ tablespoons mayonnaise (I like Hellman’s Real) 1½ teaspoons Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning ¼ teaspoon salt ¼ cup finely diced celery (you’ll need one stalk) 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley 1 pound lump crab meat** ½ cup panko Canola oil Directions: 1. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. 2. Combine the egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, Old Bay, salt, celery, and parsley in a large bowl and mix well. Add the crab meat (be sure to check the meat for any hard and sharp cartilage or shells!) and panko; gently fold mixture together until just combined, being careful not to shred the crab meat. Shape into 6 crab cakes (about ½ cup each) and place on prepared baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. 3. Preheat a large nonstick pan to medium heat and coat with canola oil. When oil is hot, place crab cakes in pan and cook until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes per side. Be careful as oil may splatter. Serve immediately with tartar sauce or a squeeze of lemon. **If you can only find jumbo lump crab meat, you may need to break the pieces up a bit. If the clumps are too large, the crab cakes won’t hold together well. Homemade Tartar Sauce Ingredients: 1 cup mayonnaise 1½ tablespoons sweet pickle relish 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon minced red onion 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice, to taste Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Directions: Mix all tartar sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Cover and chill until ready to serve.

![]() Crispy Cheddar Chicken 2 lbs chicken tenders or 4 large chicken breasts 2 sleeves Ritz crackers 1/4 teaspoons salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper 1/2 cup whole milk 3 cups cheddar cheese, grated 1 teaspoon dried parsley Sauce: 1 10 ounce can cream of chicken soup 2 tablespoon sour cream 2 tablespoon butter Crush crackers. If using chicken breasts and not tenders, cut each chicken breast into 3 large pieces. Pour the milk, cheese and cracker crumbs into 3 separate small pans. Toss the salt and pepper into the cracker crumbs and stir the mixture around to combine. Dip each piece of chicken into the milk and then the cheese. Press the cheese into the chicken with your fingers. Then press the cheesy coated chicken into the cracker crumbs and press it in. Spray a 9×13 pan with cooking spray and lay the chicken inside the pan. Sprinkle the dried parsley over the chicken. Cover the pan with tin foil and bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes. Remove the tin foil, bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the edges of the chicken are golden brown and crispy. In a medium sized sauce pan combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream and butter with a whisk. Stir it over medium high heat until the sauce is nice and hot. Serve over the chicken. |
