Crispy Cajun Salmon Croquettes image

I love salmon patties! My granny (who passed in 2017) made them all the time. Salmon patties and southern cornbread (no sugar!!! that belongs in iced tea) are the two foods I associate with her because she made them so often, and always the same way. This is my own version, in tribute to her. Enjoy!

Categories     Fish

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 5 oz salmon pouches
1/2 c minced red onion
zest of 1 lemon
juice of 1/2 lemon
2 1/4 tsp cajun seasoning
1 1/2 tsp parsley flakes
1 Tbsp mayonnaise
2 eggs
1 1/4 c cracker crumbs
panko bread crumbs for coating

Steps:

  • 1. Mix salmon, lemon zest, juice, and seasonings in a medium sized mixing bowl.
  • 2. Add eggs, mayo, and cracker crumbs. Mix well. Note: I had some leftover assorted crackers from the holidays that I needed to use up.....but you could use crushed saltines or breadcrumbs.
  • 3. Put the bowl in the fridge and let chill for half an hour.
  • 4. Preheat oven to 450. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and generously coat with oil (I used peanut oil).
  • 5. Spread panko bread crumbs on a large plate. Using a half cup scoop, form patties and coat both sides well with the panko. This made 7 good sized patties.
  • 6. Place on baking sheet and lightly brush tops with more oil. Bake for 10 minutes, flip and bake an additional 8-10 minutes.
  • 7. I served these with a "Boom" sauce that I found on Pinterest and tweaked slightly : BOOM SAUCE 1 cup mayo, 1/3 cup ketchup, 2 T Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish, a dab of horseradish, and a pinch of salt. Whisk ingredients and store in fridge.

These croquettes were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more mayonnaise or eggs to the mixture next time. Otherwise, they were very flavorful and I enjoyed them.

These croquettes were a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best salmon croquettes he's ever had. I will definitely be making them again, but I'll use less Cajun seasoning next time.

I'm not a big fan of salmon, but I loved these croquettes! The Cajun seasoning really masked the fishy taste and made them really flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

These croquettes were easy to make and turned out great. I used panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs and they were nice and crispy. I will definitely be making these again.

These salmon croquettes were a hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and moist and flavorful on the inside. The Cajun seasoning gave them a nice kick. I will definitely be making these again.
