Creole Scallop Cakes

• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped sweet red pepper
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped leek (white portion only)
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons honey mustard
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
• 1 tablespoon chopped fennel fronds
• 2 teaspoons salt-free lemon-pepper seasoning
• 1-1/2 teaspoons Creole seasoning
• 1 pound sea scallops
• 1 cup panko (Japanese) bread crumbs
• 4 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
• 2 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1/3 cup honey mustard
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon unsweetened apple juice
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
• 1/3 cup canola oil

1. In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients. Place scallops in a food processor; cover and pulse until just pureed. Fold into egg mixture.
2. In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, parsley and pepper. Drop 2 tablespoons scallop mixture into crumb mixture. Gently coat and shape into a 1/2-in.-thick patty. Repeat with remaining mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, apple juice and seasonings. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
4. Heat a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium heat. Cook patties in oil in batches until golden brown, 2-3 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towel. Serve with aioli. If desired, top with additional fennel fronds.
