Ingredients

• 14.75 oz canned salmon (boneless, skinless)
• 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tsp dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp parsley (chopped, fresh or dried)
• 2 stalks green onion (chopped)
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp olive oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Drain the canned salmon, and remove any residual bones or skin if necessary. Place the salmon in a mixing bowl and break it apart with a fork.

Step 2

Add breadcrumbs, the egg, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped parsley, green onion, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the salmon.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is well-combined and holds together when shaped.

Step 4

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty, about 1 inch thick.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon patties in the skillet.

Step 6

Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 8

Serve warm with a wedge of lemon, tartar sauce, or your choice of accompaniment. Enjoy!
