Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Crab Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, panko breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, green onion, beaten egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well combined.

  2. 2

    Form Crab Cakes

    Using your hands, form the mixture into patties, about 2-3 inches wide. Place the formed crab cakes on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Chill

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

  4. 4

    Cook the Crab Cakes

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

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the crab cakes hot with lemon pepper cream and a drizzle of sweet Thai chili sauce.
