Ingredients

Scale

For the Salmon Patties:

16 ounces flaked cooked salmon (4 cups loosely packed) or 2 cans (roughly 14.75 ounces) of canned salmon 🐟
2 large eggs, lightly beaten 🥚🥚
½ cup chopped onion 🧅
⅔ cups almond flour 🌰
¼ cup freshly chopped parsley 🌿
2 cloves garlic, chopped 🧄🧄
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice 🍋🍋
⅛ teaspoon sea salt 🧂
⅛ teaspoon freshly cracked pepper 🌶️
Neutral oil for pan-frying 🛢️
For the Lemon-Garlic Sauce:

¼ cup mayonnaise 🥄
½ cup plain Greek yogurt 🥛
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice 🍋
1 clove garlic, chopped 🧄
1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley, plus more for garnish 🌿


Instructions

For the Lemon Garlic Sauce:
1️⃣ Add all sauce ingredients to a small bowl and stir well to combine. Set aside or refrigerate until ready to serve. Optional: garnish sauce with fresh parsley, Old Bay seasoning, and/or freshly cracked black pepper when serving. 🌿🧂🌶️

For the Salmon Patties:
1️⃣ Flake 4 cups (16 ounces) of loosely packed cooked salmon into a medium bowl. (If using canned salmon, this will be 2 cans or approximately 14.75 ounces). 🐟

2️⃣ Add eggs, onion, almond flour, parsley, garlic, sea salt, and freshly cracked black pepper to the bowl with flaked salmon. Gently stir together ingredients until well combined. 🥚🧅🌰🌿🧄🧂🌶️

3️⃣ Use a disher to scoop out 2-ounce (¼ cup) scoops of the salmon mixture from the bowl into your hands. Gently press and form the salmon mixture into patty shapes and place on parchment paper. Repeat until all the mixture has been formed into patties. 👐

4️⃣ Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add neutral oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, place salmon patties in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Work in batches as needed. 🔥

5️⃣ Cook the salmon patties for 5 to 6 minutes or until golden brown, then flip and repeat for another 5 minutes or so. Transfer the pan-fried salmon patties to a plate and repeat the process until all patties have been pan-fried. 🍳

6️⃣ Garnish the salmon patties with additional fresh parsley, lemon wedges, and lemon-garlic sauce. Serve immediately. 🌿🍋🍽️
