Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a large bowl, gently combine the crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, green onions, salt, and black pepper until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Shape the mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.

  3. 3

    Chill the Cakes

    Place the crab cakes on a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them set.

  4. 4

    Cook the Cakes

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
