Crab Cakes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Crab Cakes

    In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, panko breadcrumbs, chopped green onions, beaten egg, minced garlic, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Form the mixture into patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet 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 the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Spicy Sesame Butter Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the sesame oil, Sriracha, soy sauce, lime juice, and sesame seeds. Mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the crab cakes warm, drizzled with the spicy sesame butter sauce.
