Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, Old Bay, salt, and pepper. Add the diced salmon, ¼ cup of the panko, the scallions, the celery, and the dill. Gently mix until uniformly combined.
Place the remaining panko in a shallow dish or pie plate. Using a ⅓-cup measure, scoop the salmon mixture and form into a compact cake about 1-inch high. Place the salmon cake into the panko and gently coat it all over in crumbs.
Repeat with the remaining mixture to form about 9 cakes.
Heat the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place ½ of the salmon cakes in the skillet and cook without moving for about 2 minutes until golden brown.
Carefully flip the cakes and cook for about 2 minutes more until second side is golden brown. Reduce the heat to medium if the cakes are browning too quickly.
Transfer cakes to a paper towel–lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining cakes.
Serve warm.
