Ingredients
- Lump crab meat
- 1 lb
- Breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup
- Mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup (for crab cakes), 1/2 cup (for remoulade sauce)
- Egg
- 1
- Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon (for crab cakes), 2 tablespoons (for remoulade sauce)
- Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon
- Old bay seasoning
- 1 teaspoon
- Parsley
- 1 tablespoon, finely chopped (for crab cakes), 1 tablespoon (for remoulade sauce)
- Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon
- Capers
- 1 tablespoon, drained and chopped
- Hot sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon
Instructions
- In a large bowl, carefully mix together the lump crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, egg, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, and chopped parsley. Avoid overmixing to keep the crab meat chunky.
- Shape the mixture into 8 even patties. If the mixture feels too loose, add more breadcrumbs a tablespoon at a time until it holds together well.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, until they turn a golden brown color.
- While the crab cakes are cooking, prepare the remoulade sauce. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped capers, parsley, and hot sauce. Stir until well mixed.
- Serve the golden crab cakes hot with the tangy remoulade sauce on the side. Enjoy them as is or with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for extra zest.
