Comment préparer 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.
