Zubereitung von Cajun Crab Croquettes With Zesty Remoulade Sauce
- In a large bowl, gently combine 1 pound lump crab meat, 1 cup frozen corn (thawed), 1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. This is your zesty remoulade.
- Gently fold the remoulade into the crab mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the croquettes tough.
- Shape the crab mixture into 8 equal-sized croquettes (about 2 inches in diameter).
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Carefully place the crab croquettes in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and heated through.
- While the croquettes are cooking, prepare a simple arugula salad. Toss 4 cups of arugula with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the hot crab croquettes atop the arugula salad, generously drizzled with extra remoulade sauce.
