"This is a lighter version of crab cakes that uses panko instead of bread crumbs, resulting in a fluffier crab cake. You do have to be a bit careful when handling and turning the crab cakes, but it's well worth the effort. The sauce can be adjusted to your level of spiciness, and will have you licking the spoon! Serves 4 as an entree, or 8 as an appetizer."
