Ingredients

- 5 scallions
- 3 jalapeños
- 3 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp. chopped parsley
- 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 3/4 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp. Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 c. mayonnaise
- 1 lb. lump crabmeat

Instructions
- Make the crab cakes: In a mini food processor, puree the fish. Transfer to a large bowl and add the scallions, jalapeños, lemon juice, parsley, cayenne, salt, pepper, and mayonnaise, and mix thoroughly. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the crabmeat. Form the mixture into 8 cakes. Coat the cakes with the panko and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the mayonnaise: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chipotle, lemon juice, Old Bay, and mustard, and season with salt and black pepper. Cover and refrigerate.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1/4 inch of olive oil until shimmering. Add the crab cakes and cook over moderate heat until browned and heated through, about 3 minutes per side.
