Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the blue crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, green onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to combine.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Carefully fold in the bread crumbs until just incorporated. Shape the mixture into cakes, about 2-3 inches in diameter.

  3. 3

    Broil the Crab Cakes

    Place the crab cakes on a lightly greased baking sheet. Brush the tops with olive oil. Broil in the oven for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Low Country Crab Cakes warm, with lemon wedges or your favorite sauce.
