Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine fresh crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, old bay seasoning, egg, green onions, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Using your hands, shape the mixture into patties, around 3 inches in diameter. Place them on a plate or baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Chill the Cakes

    Cover the patties and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape during cooking.

  4. 4

    Cook the Cakes

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the crab cakes to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and heated through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the crab cakes from the skillet and serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce or garnish.
