Preparation

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, green onion, beaten egg, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

    Shaping the Cakes

    Form the mixture into 4 patties (about 1/2 inch thick) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

    Cooking the Crab Cakes

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

    Serve the crab cakes warm, topped with lemon dill sauce.
