Equipment

  • Large Skillet (I prefer cast-iron, it goes from stove/oven to table)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound jumbo lump crabmeat picked over for shells
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup minced green onions
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs divided
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine crabmeat, mayonnaise, green onions, egg, Old Bay seasoning, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly.
  • Gently fold in half of the panko breadcrumbs without breaking up the lumps of crab.
  • Shape the mixture into 6 cakes and coat each cake in the remaining panko breadcrumbs.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the crab cakes until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side.
