Shrimp Cakes

Step 1

Place the shrimp in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until coarsely chopped - do not grind into a paste.

Step 2

Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl and add the panko breadcrumbs, red bell pepper, chives, salt, pepper, eggs, and lemon zest. Stir gently to combine.

Step 3

Form the shrimp mixture into 6 patties.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add the shrimp patties in a single layer and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

Step 5

Serve immediately, topped with additional chives and sour cream if desired. Garnish with lemon wedges if desired.
