Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14.75 ounces canned salmon (with bones and skin removed, if desired)
- 1 piece large egg
- 0.25 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 tablespoons green onion (finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil for frying)
Instructions
Drain the canned salmon and transfer it to a medium-sized mixing bowl. If the salmon has skin or bones, remove them (though they are edible and nutritious). Flake the salmon with a fork.
Add the egg, almond flour, parmesan cheese, green onion, parsley, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until well combined. The mixture should hold together when shaped into a patty.
Using your hands, divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and gently shape each portion into a patty about 3 inches in diameter.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4–5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the salmon patties warm with a side of your choice, such as a fresh salad, steamed vegetables, or a dollop of tartar sauce. Enjoy!
