GUIDE / INSTRUCTIONS
Combine first six ingredients plus seasonings and 2 T of beaten eggs; fold in lobster and crab; divide into 4 patties. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheet; refrigerate 5 hours. Next, place remaining beaten eggs, flour and panko separately into three shallow bowls. Dredge cakes in flour, then dip in egg, then panko. Return to baking sheet; chill at least 45 minutes. Just before serving, heat lobster broth. Sauté patties in clarified butter about 2-3 minutes per side until golden. Meanwhile, use an immersion blender to foam lobster broth.
- To plate, blend lemon juice and olive oil; dress micro greens. Divide lobster broth foam evenly on four plates, top with patty. Garnish with dressed greens and serve immediately.
