MONDAY, APRIL 6, 2009A Twist on an American Classic
The true mark of culinary excellence is when a chef is able to prepare an ordinary dish...and make it extraordinary. Such is the case at Morton's The Steakhouse, where we often take favorite comfort foods and make them out of this world.
A great example of this is our twist on the all-American favorite, the BLT. The perfect BLT sandwich marries the flavors of sweet and savory in a seamless, delectable dish, yet here at Morton's we take that perfection even further.
By adding one of our traditional favorites, crab cakes, to the best BLT in town, we turn this classic comfort food into a crave-worthy experience. We also switch up the flavors even more by trading in regular old mayonnaise for a delicious Dill-Caper sauce. This zesty, creamy sauce makes this Crab Cake BLT a must-try for anyone who loves seafood, robust flavors, and of course, bacon!
The recipe for this Crab Cake BLT, along with the recipe for the Dill-Caper sauce can be found in Morton's The Cookbook: 100 Steakhouse Recipes for Every Kitchen, which will be released on May 19th.
