There isn’t much to say about today’s post. Here’s what you need to know:
- It’s summer time.
- You need these Maryland Style Crabcakes in your life.
- It takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish to make this!
Enough said :) Let’s get started, shall we?
Ingredients
How to make it
In a medium sized bowl, stir together the egg, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, kosher salt and diced celery.
Then add the lump crab meat, parsley, and panko bread crumbs. Very gently fold all the ingredients together, being careful not to over mix the ingredients.
Next, using your hands, divide the crab mixture into 2 large (or 4 smaller) even-sized patties.
Heat a saute pan over medium heat and add the unsalted butter and olive oil. Let the butter and oil melt together and heat for 1-2 minutes. Add the crab cakes and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side (until light golden brown). Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Serve immediately with fresh lemon or tartar sauce!
