The Easiest Salmon Patties Recipe
Ever wondered what to do with that can of salmon staring at you from the pantry? Well, wonder no more! This recipe is so easy, you could probably make it while blindfolded (just kidding, please don’t try that). Get ready to impress your friends and possibly your cat!
Ingredients You Will Need:
- 1 can (14.75 ounces) of salmon, drained and flaked
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (or more, if you need to soak up your tears)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion (for flavor and crying)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper (because color is important)
- 1 egg, beaten (the glue that holds it all together)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (a zesty kick in the pants)
- Salt and pepper to taste (do it to your heart’s content)
- Oil for frying (the slippery slope to tasty)
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, and bell pepper. Stir until it’s all best friends, and you can’t tell them apart.
- Add the beaten egg and lemon juice. Mix it all together like a mad scientist until it’s a beautiful, cohesive goo.
- Season with salt and pepper. Remember, you’re not a salt lick, so don’t go overboard!
- Form the mixture into patties. Size matters: make them just thick enough to hold together, but not so thick that they become mini hockey pucks!
- In a skillet, heat up the oil over medium heat. Once it’s sizzling like your excitement, carefully place the patties in the pan.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown and looking like they just won a beauty pageant.
- Once done, serve them up hot! You can pair these little miracles with tartar sauce, lemon wedges, or even just toss them at your friends (for fun, of course).
And voilà! You’ve got yourself a plateful of laughter and scrumptiousness. Enjoy your salmon patties, and don’t forget to share (or not, we won’t judge). Happy cooking!
