COMPANY SHRIMP-AND-CRAB CAKES

Company Shrimp-and-Crab Cakes image

The addition of shrimp gives crab cakes a new flavor. Using panko instead of flour makes the prep easier, plus the cakes stay together without tasting doughy. I love these crab cakes served with mango salsa! -Regina Reynolds, Struthers, Ohio
