Instructions
In a large bowl, gently combine all Crab Mixture ingredients. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the crab cakes tough.
Form the crab mixture into 6 equal-sized patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
Place the Panko Bread Crumbs in a shallow dish. Gently coat each crab cake patty with the bread crumbs, pressing lightly to adhere.
Heat the Vegetable Oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Carefully place the crab cakes in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
Remove the crab cakes from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve immediately.
