salmon cakes

These delicious, flavorful salmon cakes make a great main dish. I like to serve them with baked brown rice and steamed asparagus. Leftovers are very good on whole-grain bread spread with a little Dijon mustard.

Makes 10 salmon cakes
New quantity:

Total time: 25 minutes
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 10 minutes

Ingredients
2 (7.5oz) cans wild Alaskan salmon, well-drained and flaked
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 medium onion, finely diced
1/2 cup Italian parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil for frying

Directions
1. In a large bowl, combine the salmon, eggs, lemon juice, garlic, onion, parsley, mustard, salt, thyme, and pepper.

2. Brush the olive oil over a double-burner griddle (or two large skillets). Heat over medium-high heat, about 3 minutes. Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup per cake, transfer patties to griddle. Cook about 3 minutes on each side, until well-browned and crisp, lowering heat to medium if griddle becomes too hot. Serve immediately.
