Salmon cakes are a great way to get your kids or family members to eat their salmon because the texture is much more palatable than raw fish. They can be served as an appetizer with sour cream, horseradish sauce, or any other sauce that you like. These ‘salmon patties’ can even be entrees when paired with a salad on the side!

There is nothing like the taste and texture of a delicious salmon cake. You can make them any size or shape you want, but most often they are about golf ball-sized.

Salmon cakes also make a delicious low carb addition to your other favorite dishes like grilled salmon or baked salmon casserole.

Here is how you can make them in 10 minutes.

Ingredients:

  • 3 Medium canned salmon (7.5 oz), boneless, skinless, and drained
  • 1 Small can diced Green Chilies (4 oz)
  • 1/2 a can of Ro-tel diced tomatoes and green chilies
  • 1 Teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 and 1/2 cups Bread Crumbs
  • Oil
  • Tarter Sauce (for dipping)

 

Directions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl add your salmon, bread crumbs, spices, chilies, Ro-tel, and eggs.

2. Mix salmon mixture until well combined.

3. Scoop out mixture and form into patties. Mine were about a 1/2 inch thick.

4. If mixture is too moist, add a 1/2 cup more of bread crumbs.

5. Heat up a skillet on medium heat and fill with about 1/4 inch of oil.

6. Cook patties on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
