Fluffy tilapia-crab cakes with roasted red pepper aioli: a guilt-free seafood delight.
Ingredients:
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 stalk celery, finely chopped (1/4 cup)
  • 4 medium green onions, finely chopped (1/4 cup)
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 small jalapeño chile, seeded, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped drained roasted red bell peppers (from 7-oz jar)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
  • 1/2 lb tilapia fillets, cut into pieces
  • 1 package (6 oz) refrigerated fresh lump crabmeat, drained, rinsed (1 cup)
  • 1/2 cup Progresso™ panko crispy bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup fat-free egg product
  • Cooking spray
  • 1/4 cup fat-free mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped drained roasted red bell peppers (from 7-oz jar)
  • 1/4 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • Mixed greens, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F and generously spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray.
  • Heat oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté celery, onions, 1 clove of garlic, and chile for 3 minutes until celery is tender. Take off the heat and mix in roasted peppers, parsley, and salt. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl.
  • Place tilapia pieces in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Combine the fish with the celery mixture, crabmeat, bread crumbs, and egg product in a bowl. Gently mix everything together, then shape into 8 patties. Arrange the patties on a cookie sheet and give them a light spray of cooking spray on top.
  • Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.
  • In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients for the aioli. Serve the tilapia-crab cakes on a bed of mixed greens drizzled with aioli.
