Crab Cakes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, gently mix the crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, and pepper until just combined. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.

  2. 2

    Form Cakes

    Form the mixture into 8 equal cakes, about 3 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Chill

    Cover the cakes with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up.

  4. 4

    Cook Cakes

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