Directions

For The Dressing

Place all the dressing ingredients into a food processor and pulse until all the ingredients are blended together.

Place in the refrigerator until ready to use.

This dressing will keep refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

For The Crab Cakes

In a large mixing bowl place the chopped red pepper, onion, and crab.

Mix together the eggs and mayonnaise.

Pour the eggs and mayonnaise into the mixing bowl with the red pepper, onion, and crab.

Add the black pepper, cayenne, dill and Panko crumbs, then mix all the ingredients together until completely mixed.

Using a 1/2 cup scoop, scoop some of the crab mixture and form a thick patty.

In a very large skillet pour enough vegetable oil into the skillet to cover the bottom and heat to hot.

Place the crab cakes into the hot oil and cook about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Some of our family like their cakes really brown and some like them very light so brown according to your family preference.

Remove to a holding plate and let set for at least 10 minutes before serving.

For The Slider

Place the buns face up on a baking sheet and toast lightly under the broiler. Watch real close so you don't burn them.

On the toasted bottom of the slider bun place 1/4 cup Cole slaw mix.

Drizzle with the Dill Dressing.

Place a crab cake on top of the dressed Cole slaw.

Drizzle Dill Dressing on top of the crab cake.
