Calories 251kcal
Ingredients
- 3 6 oz cans quality pink salmon drained
- 4 medium green onion finely chopped
- 1 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs or finely crushed saltine crackers divided
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp Seafood Magic Old Bay, Cajun/Creole seasoning, divided
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- salt and black pepper
- few dashes hot sauce
- 2 large eggs beaten
- butter or oil for frying
Instructions
- Drain the salmon and pick through removing any visible bones, flake the lumps apart using 2 forks.
- Add to a medium bowl with the green onion, 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs, mayo, lemon juice, 1 1/2 tsp seafood seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper and beaten eggs. Add hot sauce for a little heat, if desired.
- Dredge: Place the remaining 1 cup of Panko breadcrumbs onto a plate and season with 1/2 tsp of the same seafood seasoning used in the salmon mixture.
- Use a 4 ounce ice cream scoop to divide the mixture rolling lightly in the seasoned Panko breadcrumbs. Shape the salmon patties so they are uniform in size for even cooking.
- Place onto a cookie sheet lined with wax paper and chill for 30 minutes. [Tip: Chilling will help the cakes hold together when frying.]
- Fry: In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the salmon patties in 2 Tbsp butter or a few drizzles of olive oil for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
- Fry in batches adding more butter and oil as needed. Place onto a platter and keep warm between batches.
- Serve immediately.
