SALMON PATTIES {SALMON CROQUETTES}



Salmon Patties {Salmon Croquettes} image

These easy salmon patties (or "salmon croquettes") are a great way to use up leftover salmon -- or even canned salmon!

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ cup finely diced onion
1 lb. grilled, poached, or baked salmon fillets, broken into large chunks
½ cup saltine cracker crumbs ((about 15 crackers before crushing))
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
Zest and juice from ½ of a lemon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley ((or sub with 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes))
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 cup plain dry breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons butter, for sautéing
3 tablespoons canola oil or vegetable oil, for sautéing
Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley; lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Transfer the onion to a large mixing bowl. Add the salmon, saltine cracker crumbs, egg, mayonnaise, lemon zest and juice, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir gently to mix. Try not to break up the chunks of salmon too much; do not over-mix.
  • Form the salmon mixture into 8 patties, about ½ inch thick.
  • Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl; season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Dredge the salmon patties in the breadcrumbs, coating both sides and pressing gently to adhere.
  • Refrigerate the patties for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
  • In the same skillet used to cook the onions, heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling hot (use enough butter and oil to generously cover the bottom of the skillet).
  • Place the croquettes in the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Flip the patties only once; reduce the heat to medium if they start browning too quickly.
  • Drain on paper towels. Serve with seafood sauce, tartar sauce, or ketchup. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges, if desired.

SALMON CROQUETTES



Salmon Croquettes image

Salmon croquettes-a southern take on salmon patties with a golden, crispy crust-are easy and budget friendly, thanks to canned salmon.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 19

15 ounces canned boneless, skinless salmon packed in water* (look for a sustainable brand and make sure the bones/skin are removed)
2 large eggs
1 small red bell pepper (finely diced)
1/2 small white or red onion (finely chopped)
1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (optional; I used Tabasco)
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley or cilantro
1/3 cup finely ground yellow cornmeal or all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (divided (for cooking the patties))
1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pinch kosher salt
2 to 3 dashes hot sauce (optional)
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (cilantro, or basil (optional))

Steps:

  • Drain the salmon well and place in a large mixing bowl.
  • Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
  • To the bowl with the salmon, add the bell pepper, onion, Greek yogurt Worcestershire, kosher salt, pepper, celery salt, hot sauce, parsley, and beaten eggs.
  • With a fork, mix until evenly combined.
  • Place the cornmeal in a shallow dish (a pie plate works well). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and place it near the cornmeal.
  • Shape the salmon mixture into 8 patties, then lightly coat both sides of each in the cornmeal. To shape the patties, squeeze lightly with your hands discarding a little bit of liquid that may come out of the patties. Press them together gently but with enough force so that they hold together. The patties will feel loose, wet, and delicate; be patient and do your best, they'll cook up fine! Place the patties on the baking sheet as you go.
  • Cover the pan with plastic and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 1 day.
  • While the patties chill, prepare the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon, salt, hot sauce, and herbs. Refrigerate if you won't be serving within 30 minutes.
  • To cook the patties, heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, swirl the pan, then gently place the first batch of patties in the skillet so that they are not touching (I can fit 4 at a time in my skillet, but you may need to cook additional batches if your skillet isn't large enough). Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until the outsides are crisp and golden and the interiors are cooked through. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, swirl, then repeat with remaining patties. If at any point the croquettes begin to stick, add more oil as needed. If desired, keep the croquettes warm in a 250 degree F oven between batches. Enjoy hot with dipping sauce.

Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 15m

Yield 4 patties, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 ounces skinless boneless salmon (sold in 6 oz cans or packets)
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup breadcrumbs, seasoned or 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, plain
1/4 cup chopped parsley (optional)
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Saute onions in 1 TBS olive oil until cooked through but not brown.
  • Drain liquid from the salmon.
  • Combine salmon, sauteed onion, breadcrumbs (parsley if you use plain breadcrumbs), eggs, salt, and pepper.
  • Form mixture into patties.
  • Melt butter and oil in a pan.
  • Brown salmon patties on both sides (about 4-5 minutes per side).
  • Place cooked patties on a paper towl to absorb excess oil.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon possible. Fresh salmon will have a bright pink color and a firm texture. Avoid salmon that is dull in color or has a slimy texture.
  • Use a food processor or blender to chop the salmon. This will help to create a smooth and even texture for the croquettes.
  • Be sure to mix the ingredients thoroughly. This will help to ensure that the croquettes are evenly cooked.
  • Form the croquettes into small, even-sized balls. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Pan-fry the croquettes over medium heat. This will help to create a crispy outer coating.
  • Serve the croquettes with your favorite dipping sauce. Tartar sauce, lemon wedges, or aioli are all great options.

Conclusion:

Salmon croquettes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
