Ingredients
- 14.75 oz canned salmon (drained and flaked)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 stalks green onion (finely chopped)
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil (for frying)
- 4 pieces lemon wedges (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned salmon (drained and flaked), breadcrumbs, egg, mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard.
Step 2
Add the chopped green onion, parsley, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix everything thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a compact patty, about 3 inches wide.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, gently place the salmon patties into the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Step 5
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown. Carefully flip them using a spatula and fry for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side until golden and heated through.
Step 6
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 7
Serve the salmon patties warm with lemon wedges on the side for a bright, zesty finish.
