The BEST ever crab cakes inspired by my friend Beth! I love how these have very little breading / filler and really let the crab shine 🦀🌟 I can't wait to make this recipe again! The perfect easy appetizer or light dinner✨
1. Gently mix together all ingredients (because you want the chunks of crab to stay intact) and form into 6 crab cakes (about 1/2 cup filling each); press cakes between your palms so that they are tightly packed and do not fall apart.
2. Preheat the oven to 350F and coat a large skillet with olive oil over medium high heat; pan sear the crab cakes for 1-2 minutes per side (until golden brown) and then transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
3. Serve with lemon and tartar sauce and enjoy!
