In a large bowl, mixed together the egg, mayonnaise, mustard, chives, parsley and Old Bay seasoning until well combined.
Gently fold in the crabmeat and cracker crumbs, being careful not to break up the lumps.
Shape into cakes and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Heat oil in a skillet, and gently sauté the chilled crab cakes until golden, about 3 minutes per side.
