Cook Crab Cakes

When you are ready to cook the crab cakes, pat the tops and bottoms of the crab cakes with the panko crumbs.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the crab cakes and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, flipping the crab cakes gently to help them retain their shape, until the cakes are golden brown on both sides.
