Canned Salmon Patties Recipe
Craving seafood? Make my delicious canned salmon patties. These patties are made with flaky fish, breadcrumbs, eggs, and seasonings. Pan-fry or bake them till crispy and juicy.
Ingredients
- 1 can of salmon 14-16 ounces
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil for frying or cooking spray (for baking)
Instructions
- Prepare the salmon: Drain the canned salmon and flake it into small pieces in a mixing bowl, removing any bones or skin.
- Add the ingredients: Add breadcrumbs, diced onion, chopped parsley, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the salmon.
- Mix well: Gently mix all the ingredients until well combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Shape into patties: Take about 1/4 cup of the mixture at a time and form it into round patties, approximately 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. Place the patties on a plate or tray and refrigerate for 30 minutes if possible.
- Choose your cooking method: Pan-frying or baking. For pan-frying, heat a skillet with vegetable oil and cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. For baking, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C), place patties on a lined baking sheet, coat with cooking spray, and bake for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve the patties as a main course with side dishes, in sandwiches or wraps, and garnish with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice.
