Crab Cakes with Red Pepper Sauce

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients; stir in crab. In a food processor, process bread slices, a few at a time, until fine crumbs form (total volume should be 2-1/2 cups). Add 1 cup to the crab mixture.
2. Shape 1/4 cupfuls of crab mixture into patties. Coat both sides of patties with remaining bread crumbs, pressing to adhere. Place on a baking sheet; cover and refrigerate for up to 6 hours.
3. Meanwhile, for sauce, in a blender, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, honey, lemon juice, red pepper, onions, shallots, parsley, salt and pepper; cover and process until finely chopped. Refrigerate until serving.
4. In a large skillet, melt half of the butter and half of the oil. Place half of the crab cakes in skillet. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned (carefully turn the delicate cakes over). Repeat with remaining butter, oil and crab cakes. Serve with sauce and lemon wedges.
