Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Chop the fish into small pieces or pulse in a food processor until finely chopped. Be careful not to over-process; the fish should have a coarse, flaky texture.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped fish, breadcrumbs, parsley, green onion, minced garlic, lemon zest, black pepper, paprika, and ground mustard.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and then add it to the fish mixture along with the low-sodium chicken broth and lemon juice. Mix everything until well combined. If the mixture feels too dry, add a little more broth. If it feels too wet, add more breadcrumbs.
Shape the mixture into patties about 3 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick. This recipe should yield around 8 medium-sized patties.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the patties in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook each patty for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the browned patties to the prepared baking sheet.
Once all the patties are browned, place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes to ensure they are fully cooked inside.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve the fish patties warm with a side of lemon wedges or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
