Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375F and set the top rack to the middle position (BTW, this recipe is a great toaster oven candidate). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or a nonstick cooking mat.
Equipment:
- aluminum foil
- baking sheet
- toaster
- oven
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, diced red bell pepper, half of the diced green onion (reserving the other half) and half of the bread crumbs (reserving the other half).
Ingredients:
- red pepper
- breadcrumbs
- green onions
- crabmeat
Equipment:
- bowl
Step 3: Mix in the honey and chili powder, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
Ingredients:
- salt and pepper
- chili powder
- honey
Step 4: I like to form my crab cakes by pressing them into a 1/2 cup measure, squeezing tightly so theyll hold their shape. You can mould them with your hands as well, but be sure to press them together tightly or they might fall apart in transit to the plates. Arrange the crab cakes on the lined baking sheet, leaving at least 1 between each crab cake.
Ingredients:
- crab
Equipment:
- baking sheet
Step 5: Using your olive oil sprayer (if you have one; or by drizzling olive oil) lightly coat the outside of each crab cake. This will help with browning and to form an outer crust.
Ingredients:
- olive oil
- crust
- crab
Step 6: Bake at 375F for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Equipment:
- oven
Step 7: Meanwhile, fry the bacon or prosciutto in a large skillet until crispy. Set aside to drain, then crumble into small pieces using a sharp knife.
Ingredients:
- prosciutto
- bacon
Equipment:
- frying pan
- knife
Step 8: Finely chop the spinach and watercress stems. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Ingredients:
- watercress
- spinach
- butter
Equipment:
- frying pan
Step 9: Add the garlic and saut 1 minute. Then, add the remaining green onion, bread crumbs and watercress stems. Saut 1 minute more. Finally, add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Ingredients:
- salt and pepper
- breadcrumbs
- green onions
- watercress
- spinach
- garlic
Step 10: To serve, plate a crab cake atop a smear of the spinach mixture, then sprinkle the whole plate with crumbled bacon.
Ingredients:
- real bacon pieces
- spinach
- crab
