Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Arrange salmon skin side down on baking sheet and brush lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then roast for 10-15 minutes until just done. Flake with a fork and cool.
- Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and bell pepper. Cook for 7-9 minutes until softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked, flaked salmon, sauteed veggies, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, eggs, parsley, dill, chives, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, and salt & pepper. Stir well to combine. Use a large cookie scoop to scoop ¼ to ⅓ cup size mounds and shape into patties.
- Heat remaining olive oil and butter in the same skillet used to cook the vegetables over medium heat. Add the salmon cakes in batches, frying for 2-3 minutes on each side, until browned. Drain on paper towels and keep warm in a preheated 250°F oven while frying the remaining salmon cakes. Serve hot with aioli.
- To make the aioli, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon zest and juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Notes
- food processor
- In place of breadcrumbs you can use crushed Ritz crackers or 3 slices stale bread with crusts removed that have been processed in a food processor and toasted for 5 minutes in the oven until lightly browned.
- Canned salmon without skin or bones or leftover salmon can be used in place of fresh salmon.
- Store: Keep leftover salmon cakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The aioli will keep in the fridge for up to 1 week.
- Freeze: Freeze the uncooked or cooked patties on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
- Reheat: Reheat salmon cakes in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes or in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.
- Make Ahead: Prepare and shape the salmon patties ahead of time, then refrigerate for up to 24 hours before cooking.
