• 1 pound of crab claw meat, picked over
• 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus 18 whole cilantro leaves
• 1 large egg, beaten to mix
• 1 cup of Panko breadcrumbs, or regular unseasoned breadcrumbs
• 3 tablespoons canola mayonnaise
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
