Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Crab Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, green onion, beaten egg, and season with salt and pepper. Gently fold in the bread crumbs until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Crab Cakes

    Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and gently shape each portion into a patty. Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape.

  3. 3

    Cook the Crab Cakes

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

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the crab cakes warm, garnished with arugula and fresh grapefruit segments. Drizzle with lemon cream sauce.
