• 10 ounces fresh lump crabmeat
• 1 1/2 cups fresh white or sourdough bread crumbs, divided

Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add 1 teaspoon oil. Add 4 crab cakes; cook 4 to 5 minutes per side or until golden brown. Transfer to serving platter; keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining 1 teaspoon oil and crab cakes.
