Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Mixture

    In a large bowl, gently mix together the jumbo lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, eggs, breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. 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 4 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Chill the Cakes

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

  4. 4

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
