Panko-Crusted Lobster Cakes Recipe | Club Foody

 

When I want to highlight a special occasion such as birthdays 🎂, dinner parties or events, I like to serve seafood. I find it’s so delicious, most cases, easy to make and it also brings a touch of elegance. It can be as an hors d’oeuvre, an appetizer or the main course.
 
Serving seafood 🍤 as an appetizer is light and doesn’t stuff your guests prior to “la pièce de resistance”. There’s a vast choice of recipes to choose from on the website like Shrimp Martini, Moules Marinière, Crab Stuffed Mushrooms, Oysters Bienville, Bay Scallops Chowder, Escargots à la Bourguignonne, etc.
 
Another one that is always a crowd pleaser 👨‍👧‍👦 is my Panko-Crusted Lobster Cakes! Extremely easy to make, these guys are incredibly flavorful! With a gorgeous combination of ingredients and seasonings, this is a great recipe to have in your repertoire.
 
The mixture is simply amazing! I add mayo – homemade, of course! -, green onions, roasted red peppers and celery. For the seasonings, there’s paprika, tarragon, the two usual suspects which are salt 🧂 and pepper plus my Old Bay seasoning blend.
 
The star ⭐ of this appetizer is simply a can of minced lobster meat. This recipe was created by accident. When I bought the can, I didn’t read properly and was expecting chunks of meat, not minced, to make my Seafood Stuffed Crêpes. Knowing it was the wrong texture, I, therefore, made these Panko-Crusted Lobster Cakes instead!
 
One important tip I want to mention…
Normally, the can of minced lobster meat will be frozen and kept that way until ready to use. It’s thawed out in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours. However, this process creates some condensation and makes the lobster meat wet. When forming the patties, gently squeeze out the extra liquid 💦 until mostly gone.
 
The cooking time is just a charm! After rolling the patties in breadcrumbs and bringing the oil and clarified butter 🧈 to a sizzle, the cakes only take 3 to 4 minutes per side or until golden brown. A word of warning… take your time when flipping them as they’re a bit on the fragile side.
 
These Panko-Crusted Lobster Cakes 🦞 are amazingly tasty! Served with Rémoulade, Aïoli, Russian or Thousand Island dressing, this is a delightful appetizer to enjoy for any special occasion!
Bon Appétit! 🍽
