Ingredients

    Crab Cakes
    1 pound lump crabmeat
    1 cup plain bread crumbs
    3/4 cup reduced fat mayonnaise
    1 large egg -- beaten
    2 green onions, white and light green parts only -- minced
    1/2 teaspoon soy or lobster sauce
    1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
    1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

    Mango Salsa:
    1 large ripe mango (~1 lb) peeled, seeded -- cut in 1/4" dice
    1 medium red onion -- finely chopped
    3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
    1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
    1 tablespoon minced jalapeno
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

To make the salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the salsa ingredients. Mix well and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to 2 hours, to let the flavors blend.

Drain the crabmeat (fresh, frozen, or canned) in a sieve [if frozen, allow to defrost]. In a medium bowl, flake the meat with a fork and discard any shells or cartilage that might remain. Add the remaining ingredients, mixing gently but thoroughly. Shape into 11 small cakes, each about 2 inches in diameter and about 1/2 inch thick. Place the cakes on a place, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes or as long as 2 hours, so they will hold together on the grill.

Grill over Direct High heat until the bread crumbs are toasted, 6 to 8 minutes, turning once very carefully with a spatula. Serve warm with the salsa spooned on top.
