- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
Drain the canned salmon and remove any large bones if desired, but leave the skin and small bones for added nutrients and texture.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the salmon, egg, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, parsley, lemon juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 4
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering.
