Oven-Roasted Crab Cakes image

We had about a bunch of king crab left over and my hubby wanted me to make crab cakes with it. I'd never made them before so I did some research. This recipe is a combination of a few different ones - but came out GREAT! He was VERY happy and it is now going to be a repeat recipe! Hope you enjoy it too!

Time 18m

Yield 6 cakes, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

16 ounces shelled cooked crabmeat
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1/4 cup minced fresh chives
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 large egg
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Sort through crab and discard any bits of shell. Press out moisture with paper towels.
  • In a large bowl, combine celery, minced chives, mayonnaise, egg, mustard, and Old Bay; mix well with a fork.
  • Add crab and 1/4 cup panko; stir gently just to mix.
  • Put in fridge for 1/2 an hour or more if time permits.
  • Put remaining panko in a shallow bowl.
  • Shape crab mixture into about 6 cakes about a 1/2 inch thick.
  • Place each cake in panko to coat on each side - place on baking stone or dish and reform into shape. Should be sort of flat across - about a 1/2 inch thick - and formed around the edges.
  • Bake in a 475°F regular or convection oven until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • With a spatula, transfer crab cakes to a platter. Add any sauce you want - but they turned out great without any sauce.
