Preparation
Step 1
Pulse panko in food processor until finely ground, about 15 pulses; transfer to shallow dish.
Step 2
Place one-third of shrimp (about 1 cup), mayonnaise, salt, pepper, and cayenne in now-empty processor and pulse until shrimp are finely chopped, about 8 pulses.
Step 3
Add remaining shrimp and pulse until coarsely chopped, about 4 pulses, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Transfer to bowl and stir in scallions.
Step 4
Using your lightly moistened hands, divide shrimp mixture into 4 equal portions, then gently shape each portion into ¾-inch-thick patty.
Step 5
Working with 1 patty at a time, dredge in panko, pressing lightly to adhere; transfer to plate.
Step 6
Heat oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Step 7
