03 Method

Step 1

Set up your breading station: Line a platter or baking sheet with parchment paper and spread panko breadcrumbs onto a medium plate.
Step 2

Place crab in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together first 5 ingredients (egg through green onions). Gently fold egg mixture into crab meat until fully combined.
Step 3

Scoop out 1/3 to 1/2-cup of the mixture and shape into a 1/2-inch thick crab cake. Gently coat the crab cake in panko breadcrumbs and place on prepared platter or baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture.
Step 4

Heat olive oil and butter in a heavy skillet (ideally cast iron) over medium heat until sizzling. Add crab cakes and cook 4-5 minutes, gently press down on the tops with a spatula to flatten them slightly. Gently flip and cook 4-5 minutes more, until golden brown; if they crumble a little on the flip, gently press them back together with your spatula.
Step 5

Serve hot with Remoulade Sauce.
