Baked Salmon Patties
Description
This recipe uses flaked cooked salmon mixed with diced bell peppers, red onion, fresh dill, eggs, mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), panko breadcrumbs, and seasonings including Old Bay and a dash of hot sauce. The mixture is shaped into patties to hold together during baking. Baking at a high temperature of 425°F crisps the outside while keeping the interior moist and flavorful.
The bell peppers add a subtle crunch and sweetness, while dill imparts a fresh herbal note complementing the salmon's richness. The Old Bay seasoning gives a classic savory flavor with a hint of spice. Baking on an oiled sheet prevents sticking and ensures even browning. Serving these patties with lemon wedges enhances the seafood flavors, and tartar sauce adds a creamy, tangy contrast.
These salmon patties can comfortably serve as a main dish or part of a sandwich. Their baked preparation offers a lighter alternative to frying without sacrificing texture or taste. Variations in bell pepper colors provide mild sweetness and visual interest.
Cooked salmon can be fresh or canned, with canned salmon acceptable though likely with less volume. Dice bell peppers finely to distribute their texture evenly. The patties bake for about 20 minutes total, turning halfway to brown both sides evenly.
Ingredients
- 1 lb salmon cooked and flaked (See Note 1)
- 2 large egg
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise or plain Greek yogurt
- 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 1/2 cups bell pepper See Note 2, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion diced
- 3 tbsp dill finely chopped, fresh
- 2 tsp Old Bay seasoning
- 1 dash Tabasco sauce or other hot sauce, optional
Cooking/Serving
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- tartar sauce for serving
- lemon for serving, wedges
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- In a large bowl, break the cooked salmon into bite size pieces or flake the drained and canned salmon.
- Add the remaining ingredients and gently mix well with hands or spatula. Form into 6 patties.
- Place the salmon patties on an oiled baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, turn and continue baking another 5 minutes until golden brown on both sides. Serve hot with lemon slices and tartar sauce.
Notes
- Cooked salmon can be swapped with canned salmon, though quantity may be less and affect texture slightly.
- Using a mix of diced green, red, and yellow bell peppers adds sweetness and color variation.
