- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs

Instructions
- In a large bowl combine all ingredients for the crab cakes, besides the crabmeat and butter, and whisk together.
- Add the lump crabmeat, making sure to drain off any excess water from the packaging. Carefully
- Carefully combine crabmeat and filling with your hands, making sure not to break up the lump pieces of crab.
- Using a 1-inch cookie scoop, form the mixture into bite sized mini cakes with your hands.
- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the crab cakes to the skillet, a few at a time, and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining crab cakes and continue until all crab cakes are cooked. Set aside until ready to serve.
- In a medium bowl, toss together the ingredients for the mango pepper relish and serve alongside the crab cakes.
