Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine crabmeat and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl. In a small bowl, whisk egg, chives, mayonnaise, mustard, seasoning, and lemon zest until blended; add to crab mixture and stir. Using a small ice cream scoop, shape mounds of crab mixture (about 1 1/2 tablespoons) into small round cakes, about 1 1/2 inches wide. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook cakes 1 minute per side, or until lightly browned. Transfer cakes to a paper towel to blot up excess oil, then transfer to prepared baking sheet. Bake crab cakes 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Top each with a small dollop of Wasabi Mayonnaise if desired
