Southern Fried Salmon Patties are a crispy and delicious dish made with flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, and a blend of seasonings, perfect for a quick meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (14.75 ounces) pink salmon, drained and flaked
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably seasoned)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil (for frying)
- Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, onion, bell pepper, mayonnaise, egg, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix until well combined.
- Shape the mixture into patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. You should have approximately 8 patties.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
- Fry the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
- Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a teaspoon of hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the mixture.
- Substitute the pink salmon with canned tuna or fresh cooked salmon for a different flavor profile.
