3/4 cup diced onion
1/2 cup finely diced bell pepper
1 Tbsp. Butter
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
6 cups crappie fillets, flaked and pressed dry (make sure its dry or the cakes will suck) with paper towels (thats about 12 crappie)
3 minced garlic cloves
1 whole jalapeno minced
3 Tbsp. flour
4.5 Tbsp. Italian breadcrumbs
1 Tsp. lemon pepper
4.5 Tbsp. Mayo
3 Egg Whites, beaten
Oil

Heat butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Add onion, japs, and bell pepper.
Sauté for 4-5 minutes.
Remove and let it cool.

In a large bowl, add cilantro, fish, pepper flakes, garlic and cooled onion/pepper from pan.
Sprinkle flour, breadcrumbs, and lemon pepper over while gently mixing, making sure to coat fish evenly.
Fold in mayo and egg whites.
Make patties like you would breakfast sausage, about 3 or 4 inches in diameter.
If it sticks together, you're ready. If it's too dry and flaky, add some more breadcrumbs. It should be moist, but not soggy.

Cover the bottom of a large skillet with oil and cook over medium heat. When oil is hot, add cakes and cook until medium brown on one side, about 4-5 minutes per side or less.
