Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 ounces canned salmon, drained and flaked
- 1 unit large egg
- 0.5 cup unsalted bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 cup onion, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup celery, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, egg, and unsalted bread crumbs.
Add the chopped parsley, onion, celery, lemon juice, and ground black pepper to the salmon mixture. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Shape the mixture into 8 equal patties, each about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the salmon patties to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the salmon croquettes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired, and enjoy!
