Ingredients

  • 14 oz canned salmon (skinless and boneless)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (whole wheat preferred)
  • 2 eggs
  • 0.25 cup red onion (finely diced)
  • 0.25 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (for frying)
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Drain the canned salmon and add it to a large mixing bowl. Use a fork to flake the salmon into smaller pieces.

Step 2

Add the breadcrumbs, eggs, red onion, parsley, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to the bowl.

Step 3

Gently mix the ingredients together using a fork or your hands until well combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain tender patties.

Step 4

Form the mixture into 8 evenly sized patties, about 2.5 inches in diameter each, and place them on a plate.

Step 5

Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Add the patties to the skillet in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Transfer cooked patties to a paper towel-lined plate to blot excess oil.

Step 8

Serve the salmon patties warm with a side of greens, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or your favorite dipping sauce.
