Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the Dungeness crab meat, mayonnaise, breadcrumbs, egg, chopped green onions, Old Bay seasoning, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated.
2. Form the Cakes
Using your hands, shape the mixture into patties, about 1 inch thick. Place them on a plate or tray lined with parchment paper.
3. Chill the Cakes
Cover the crab cakes with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps them hold their shape during cooking.
4. Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. You want enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet.
5. Cook the Crab Cakes
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the crab cakes in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
6. Drain and Serve
Once cooked, remove the crab cakes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
