Cajun Spicy Salmon Patties

Salmon has a rich flavor to it and when you spice them up with a little of my Cajun Spice Mix, then they are delicious.

Ingredients


  • 1 1/2 lb. salmon fillets, skin on and deboned
  • 1 tablespoon Cajun Spice Mix
  • 2 green onions, root ends trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 white onion, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or basil
  • Zest of 1 lemon, plus 1/2 lemon for squeezing
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 3 Tbsp chickpea flour, or 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil for frying

    Directions

Preheat oven to 375dg F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking pan. Bake until the fish turns light pink, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Once cool enough to handle, peel off and discard the salmon skin. Put a fresh piece of parchment on the baking pan.

Using two forks flake the cooked salmon into small pieces and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add the breadcrumbs, green onions, white onions, cilantro, lemon zest, egg, and chickpea flour. Stir to combine. Make small salmon patties, 2 1/2 inches wide, using about 1/2 cup of the mixture per patty. Place the patties in the prepared baking pan. Cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or overnight, to help the patties firm up for successful frying.

When ready to cook, line a large plate with paper towels. In a large skillet, heat 2 to 3 Tbsp vegetable oil over medium-high heat until the oil begins to ripple. Carefully put two patties into the skillet and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the patties and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the patties to the prepared plate. Discard any browned bits from the skillet and repeat with the remaining patties, adding more oil and adjusting the heat as needed. Serve warm with a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of dressing.

INGREDIENTS (4 people)


4 frozen of fresh Salmon fillets

1 lb. carrots, diagonally cut into ¼ inch slices

¼ cup pure maple syrup

½ teaspoon pumpkin spice mix

8 multi grain saltine crackers

DIRECTION

Thaw fish, if frozen. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a 15x10-inch baking pan with foil; set aside.

Combine carrots, 3 tablespoons maple syrup, and the pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl. Arrange the carrots on one-half of the prepared baking pan. Bake for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, rinse the fish; pat dry with paper towels. Combine crushed crackers, 3 tablespoons of the pumpkin seeds, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a shallow dish. Brush the top of the fish with the remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup. Sprinkle with the cracker mixture, pressing to adhere. Place the fish in the baking pan next to the carrots. Lightly coat the top of the fish with cooking spray. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes more or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork and the carrots are tender.

To serve, divide the carrots among dinner plates and sprinkle with the remaining 2 teaspoons pumpkin seeds. Top with the salmon.
