Ingredients

1/2 cup mayonnaise 

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 

1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 

2 tablespoons minced fresh chives, plus more for serving 

Coarse salt 

1 cup oyster crackers, crushed (3/4 cup) 

1 pound lump crabmeat, preferably Dungeness, picked over 

2 tablespoons safflower oil 

Lemon wedges, for serving 

Preparation

Combine mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire, chives, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Fold in crackers and crab just until combined. Using a 1/3-cup measuring cup, form mixture into 3-inch round patties.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Cook half of patties until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes a side. Repeat with remaining oil and patties. Sprinkle with chives and serve, with lemon wedges.
