Cooking Up Delicious Canned Salmon Patties:

Salmon patties are a versatile and delicious option for any mealtime. Whether you’re looking for a quick and easy dinner or a satisfying lunch, canned salmon patties are a fantastic choice. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the steps of making mouth-watering salmon patties that will impress your taste buds and your guests.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can of salmon (14.75 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup of finely chopped onions
  • 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons of lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil

Instructions:

  1. Start by draining the canned salmon and removing any bones or skin. Flake the salmon with a fork into a mixing bowl.
  2. Add breadcrumbs, chopped onions, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper to the bowl with the salmon. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.
  3. Dust your hands with some breadcrumbs to prevent sticking and shape the mixture into patties. The size of the patties is up to you, but aim for about 3-4 inches in diameter.
  4. Place a large skillet over medium heat and add vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon patties into the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Once the patties are cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
  6. Serve the salmon patties hot and enjoy them on a bed of lettuce, in a burger bun, or as a side dish with your favorite sauce. They’re delicious with tartar sauce, sriracha mayo, or a squeeze of fresh lemon.

These canned salmon patties are not only delicious but also a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential nutrients. They are a budget-friendly option that can be prepared in a matter of minutes. Experiment with different seasonings and add your personal touch to create a unique flavor experience.
