Ingredients:For the crab cakes:24 oz jumbo lump crab meat⅓ cup white onion, diced small⅓ cup celery, diced small¼ cup mayonnaise1½ tbsp smooth dijon mustard1 tsp tabasco2 tsp cajun seasoning 2 tsp sea salt1 tsp ground black pepper⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs 1 tbsp butterFor the Creole hollandaise sauce: 2 tbsp white wine1 tbsp white wine vinegar½ shallot, thinly sliced 1 sprig tarragon1 pc star anise1 tbsp lemon juice 3 egg yolks1½ cup butter, melted1 tsp sea salt2 tsp cajun seasoning1 tbsp whole grain mustard 8 whole eggs1 tbsp white vinegar 4 english muffins2 tbsp chives, thinly sliced2 tsp cajun spice or Old Bay3 tsp vegetable oilMethod:To prepare the crab cakes:In a sauté pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and sweat the diced onion and celery until translucent. Set aside to cool. Next, carefully clean the crab meat to ensure that there are no shells left behind. In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the cooled onion and celery with the remaining ingredients, leaving out the crab. Gently add in the crab meat, carefully folding it into the mixture so as to not overwork the crab meat. Using a 3-4 oz ice cream scoop, portion out the crab cake mixture and shape the cakes to be the same width as your english muffins. Cover and chill until ready to cook.To make the creole hollandaise:In a small saucepan, add the white wine, white wine vinegar, shallot, tarragon and star anise. Cook over medium heat until reduced to ⅓ of the original volume (about 1 tablespoon). Strain the vinegar reduction into a small bowl, pressing out the juice from the shallots. In a medium mixing bowl over a double boiler, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice and vinegar reduction. Continue whisking vigorously over low heat until the eggs lighten in color and double in volume. Remove the mixing bowl from heat and slowly pour a stream of melted butter into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to create an emulsion. The emulsion should be thick enough to coat a spoon and form ribbons when poured. Stir in seasonings and mustard, then cover and keep in a warm place until ready to serve.To poach your eggs:Bring a small pot of water and 1 tablespoon white vinegar to a simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and set aside. With a spoon, begin stirring the boiling water in a large, circular motion. When the water is swirling like a tornado, gently add the eggs one at a time. The swirling water will help the egg white wrap around itself as it cooks. Poach each egg for 3-4 minutes until the egg whites are firm but the yolk is still soft when pressed. Transfer from the pot with a slotted spoon to drain on a paper towel lined plate. If preparing ahead of time, transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. In a nonstick pan over medium heat, sear the crab cakes in vegetable oil for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and warm in the center. While the crab cakes are cooking, carefully split the english muffins in half using a fork and lightly toast. Plate your english muffins and top with a crab cake and a warm poached egg. Gently spoon 2-3 tablespoons of creole hollandaise over each egg and garnish with sliced chives and a light dusting of Old Bay or cajun seasoning.

3–4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken (legs, thighs and breasts)1 ½ cups buttermilkHot sauce, to taste4 teaspoons kosher salt2 teaspoons black pepper3 eggs, beaten2 ½ cups flour1 cup cornstarch1 tablespoon garlic powder1 tablespoon onion powder1/2 tablespoon Paprika¾ teaspoon dried dill weed¾ teaspoon oregano½ teaspoon cayenne pepperVegetable or peanut oil, to fry 1. Combine buttermilk and hot sauce. Season chicken with half of salt and pepper and add remaining to buttermilk mixture. Combine chicken and buttermilk and marinate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.2. Remove chicken and pat dry. Reserve marinade. Combine eggs with 1 ½ cups marinade, set aside. In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch and spices. Divide between two bowls.3. Dredge chicken in flour mixture, coating well. Dip in egg mixture, then in second flour mixture again, coating well. (The process is flour, egg, flour…in that order.) Set each piece aside after breading for about 20 minutes. The chicken should be tacky and gummy which ensures a crispy fry.4. Pour up to 1-inch oil in a cast iron or Dutch oven. Heat oil to 375 F. (If a piece of breading fries and bubbles when you toss it in, the oil is ready). Gently add chicken to hot oil and fry for 6 minutes on each side or until golden brown.5. Finish in a 375 F oven until internal temperature reaches 160 F, about 15–20 minutes.6. Let rest for 10 minutes and enjoy.This recipe serves 12. Cut in half for 6.
