Step-by-Step Instructions for Irresistible Salmon Patties
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, finely chopped onion, and fresh parsley. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, the beaten egg, garlic powder, paprika, along with salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything until well combined.
  2. Shape the salmon mixture into patties of your desired size, usually about 2–3 inches in diameter. Ensure the patties are evenly formed.
  3. In a large skillet, heat about 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering, around 2 minutes.
  4. Carefully add the shaped salmon patties to the hot skillet and cook for 4–5 minutes on one side or until golden brown, then flip to cook the other side.
  5. Once golden and crispy, remove patties from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  6. Serve the salmon patties hot with your favorite side dishes or as a sandwich. Enjoy!
