Equipment
- 1 Large Mixing Bowl
- 1 large griddle or frying pan
Ingredients
- 1 can (14-15 oz) Alaskan Salmon, drained and deboned
- 2 cups crushed Cheez-It crackers (flavor of your choice)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 large bell pepper, diced
Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients: Drain the canned salmon and remove any bones or skin. In a large mixing bowl, add the salmon, crushed Cheez-It crackers, eggs, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, minced garlic, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and diced bell pepper.
- Mix and Form Patties: Using your hands or a spatula, gently mix all ingredients together until well combined. Form the mixture into burger-sized patties.
- Fry the Patties: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a bit of oil or butter to prevent sticking. Once the skillet is hot, place the salmon patties onto the surface and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until each side is golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: These Southern Salmon Patties pair perfectly with a garden-fresh salad or a cool, creamy pasta salad for a balanced and delicious meal.
