Ingredients

1 ½ cups Italian-style bread crumbs
1 cup mayonnaise
2 eggs
2 teaspoons dill mustard
2 teaspoons capers with brine
½ lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried dill
1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
3 (4.25 ounce) cans white crabmeat, drained
1 (4 ounce) can tiny shrimp, drained
2 tablespoons canola oil, or as needed

Steps:

Combine bread crumbs, mayonnaise, eggs, mustard, capers and brine, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, dill, Creole seasoning, garlic, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a bowl; mix until well combined.
Combine crabmeat and shrimp in a small bowl. Fold into the mayonnaise mixture until well blended. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Remove from the refrigerator and form into 12 patties.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook seafood patties in batches in the hot oil, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and repeat with remaining patties, adding more oil if needed.
