Crab Cakes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Cake Mixture

    In a large bowl, gently combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, bread crumbs, and green onions. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Using your hands, form the mixture into patties, about 3 inches in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Chill the Patties

    Cover the crab cakes with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape.

  4. 4

    Cook the Crab Cakes

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

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the crab cakes hot with Bistro Aioli on the side.
