Ingredients

Olive oil cooking spray 1 pound lump crabmeat 4 scallions, chopped 2 tablespoons fresh herbs such as dill, chives, or tarragon 1/2 cup olive oil–based mayonnaise 1/4 cup ground flaxseeds 1/4 cup quick-cooking rolled oats 2 tablespoons hemp seeds 1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning such as reduced-sodium Old Bay 1/2 pound romaine lettuce 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Instructions

Position a rack in the center of the oven. Coat a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray. Pick through the crabmeat to make sure there aren’t any shells. Set aside. Put the scallions, fresh herbs, mayonnaise, and flaxseeds in a large bowl and stir well to combine. Add the crabmeat and give it a gentle toss. Place the oats, hemp seeds, and seafood seasoning on a plate. Toss with your fingers to mix. Form the crabmeat mixture into four 4-inch-wide patties and press into the oat-seed mixture. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Mist the tops with olive oil cooking spray and transfer to the oven. Broil for 3 –5 minutes until the tops are golden. Place the romaine in a large bowl along with the olive oil and the vinegar and toss well. Divide the romaine salad among four plates. Top each plate with two crab cakes and serve immediately.
