Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Cakes

    In a large bowl, combine crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until well combined. Form the mixture into two patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the crab cakes and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Lemon Garlic Spread

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create the lemon garlic spread.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the burger buns if desired. Spread the lemon garlic mixture on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with arugula, sliced tomato, and the cooked crab cake. Top with the other half of the bun.

    Serve immediately with your choice of side.
