Giant Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Giant Crab Cake Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, gently combine the lump crab meat, panko breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, and chopped parsley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Carefully form the mixture into large patties, about 4-6 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Chill the Patties

    Refrigerate the crab cakes for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape during cooking.

  4. 4

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a bit of oil. Cook the crab cakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and heated through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the giant crab cakes warm with a drizzle of spiced sriracha aioli on top or on the side.
