Friday, August 3, 2012

Mix together:
2 T mayonnaise
3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 t Dijon mustard
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
2 tablespoons minced red bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper or red pepper flakes
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Gently add in:
2 (6-ounce) packages skinless, boneless pink salmon
Do not over mix. You want to have chunks of salmon still visible.
Toss in:
1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
Shape mixture into 8 (3-inch) patties.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add patties; cook 5 minutes on each side or until browned.
