Directions
- 1
Prepare the Crab Cake Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the jumbo lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, breadcrumbs, fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much; it should remain chunky.

Chill the Mixture
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to firm up.

Form the Crab Cakes
After chilling, remove the mixture from the refrigerator. With your hands, form the mixture into 6 large patties.

Cook the Crab Cakes
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
