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 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 8 small cakes, each about 2 inches in diameter
and about 1 inch thick. Place the cakes on a
plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate
for 30 minutes or as long as 2 hours, so they will
hold together on the grill.
Place crab cakes in a foil tin pan, grill over Medium 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.
