Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 ounces canned wild-caught salmon
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
Drain the canned salmon and remove any skin and bones if preferred. Place the salmon in a mixing bowl and flake it with a fork.
Add the almond flour, coconut flour, finely chopped onion, garlic powder, and fresh parsley to the bowl. Mix well to combine.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and then stir in the lemon juice. Pour this mixture over the salmon mixture and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined. The mixture should be moist but able to hold together when shaped into patties.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 2 inches in diameter.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Carefully place the salmon patties in the skillet, leaving space between each. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Transfer cooked patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot, with your choice of paleo-friendly dipping sauce or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
