Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form. Basil is an excellent stress reliever, and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.

Ingredients

Kosher salt
1 ear sweet corn, husk on
1 pound blue crab
12 ounces snow crab
2 cups Crab Cake Sauce, recipe follows
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup fresh Thai basil, finely diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely diced
1/4 cup green onions
2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
4 red bell peppers, roasted, peeled, deseeded and finely diced
2 sleeves crackers, such as Ritz, crumbled

Instructions

For the crab cakes: Bring a pot of water with 1 teaspoon salt to a boil, and then cook the corn with the husk on for 10 minutes. Peel off and discard the husk, and then remove the kernels from the stalk with a knife and set aside.
Combine the corn with the blue crab, snow crab, Crab Cake Sauce, mayonnaise, breadcrumbs, Thai basil, cilantro, onions, lemon juice, peppers and crackers in a large mixing bowl and mix thoroughly. Shape into 5-ounce patties, and then place on a baking sheet in the refrigerator to rest and firm up, about 30 minutes.
For cooking and assembling: Heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan, and then saute the crab cakes until golden on each side. To build the sandwiches, smear 1 ounce of New Tartar Sauce and 1 ounce of Mango Chutney on each crab cake, followed by 1 slice of tomato, 4 slices of avocado, some Asian style greens and 3 onion rings. Enjoy!
