These Irresistible Salmon Patties are a quick dinner, easy recipe, and one of my favorite food ideas when I need something crispy, flavorful, and satisfying without much fuss. Made with simple pantry staples and cooked until golden, they are perfect for busy weeknights, easy lunch plans, dinner ideas, and even healthy-ish meal prep when I want a comforting seafood dish that still feels light.
Ingredients
1 can salmon, drained and flaked
1 large egg
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
1. Add the salmon to a medium bowl and flake it well with a fork.
2. Mix in the egg, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
3. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties.
4. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
5. Cook the salmon patties for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown and heated through.
6. Let them rest for 1 to 2 minutes, then serve warm.
Notes
Do not make the mixture too wet or the patties can fall apart in the skillet, so if needed, add a little extra breadcrumbs before shaping.
