½ cup panko bread crumbs (for wet mix)
1 cup panko bread crumbs (for coating crab cakes)
½ cup mayo

¼ tsp ancho chili powder

Juice of ½ lemon
To cook
1/2 cup clarified butter
Method of prep:
In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix all ingredients but the crab meat. Mix these ingredients well with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. Next, gently fold in the crab meat so as not to break up the lumps.
Sprinkle panko (for coating crab cakes) onto a sheet tray. Place a ring mold on top of a thin layer of panko. Pack the crab cake mixture into the ring mold so that it is nice and tight. Remove the ring mold gently and sprinkle a thin layer of panko on top of the cake. Repeat until all of the crab cakes are made.
Chill crab cakes for 30 minutes to 2 hours to allow them to firm up.
For the sauce: Mix all sauce ingredients together. Set aside.
To cook: Heat a cast iron skillet or sauté pan over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and add 2-4 crab cakes. Cook until The cakes are golden brown. Transfer cakes onto a sheet tray and finish in a 350 degree oven until the internal temperature of the crab cakes reach 165 degrees (about 5 minutes). Remove from oven, serve with dipping sauce!
