Begin by rinsing the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Cut the fish into large chunks and place them into a food processor. Pulse until the fish is coarsely ground.
Transfer the ground fish into a large mixing bowl.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and mix it with the Greek yogurt and lemon juice. Stir until smooth.
Add the egg mixture, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, and parsley to the ground fish in the mixing bowl.
Gently fold in the panko breadcrumbs until the mixture holds together; be careful not to overmix.
Form the fish mixture into 8 equal-sized patties using your hands.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the fish patties in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook each patty for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the patties from the skillet and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve immediately with a wedge of lemon or low sodium condiment of choice.
