Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for salmon patties:
Ingredients:
- 2 cans (14.75 ounces each) salmon, drained
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper (red or green)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- Olive oil, for frying
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained salmon, breadcrumbs, onion, bell pepper, garlic, parsley, eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
- Form the mixture into patties. You can make them any size you prefer, but about 1/4 cup of mixture for each patty works well.
- Heat a few tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon patties into the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Once cooked through, remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the salmon patties hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce or aioli, and enjoy!
These salmon patties are flavorful, crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. They make a perfect main course for lunch or dinner and are also great for meal prep since they can be refrigerated and reheated easily. Enjoy!
