Ingredients

1 lb raw shrimp, peeled, deveined, and roughly chopped

1/4 cup breadcrumbs

1 large egg

2 green onions, finely chopped

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1 tablespoon mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)

Lemon wedges, for serving


Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped shrimp, breadcrumbs, egg, green onions, parsley, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Mix until well combined.

Shape the mixture into small patties, about 2–3 inches in diameter.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add shrimp cakes in batches, cooking for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.

Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
