The best Salmon Cakes EVER!!! (Especially for people who don
Options
I am not a fish person. I'm not even a seafood person. I see a tuna steak and I'm like "where's the beef???" But I know to embrace a true healthy diet I have to squeeze the healthy fish in there so I cam across this salmon cake recipe and decided to give it a try. It was delicious! I made the recipe exactly and it was a crowd pleaser even for my fiance (who's not on a diet!). Love diet food that doesn't taste like diet food! I served it with baked fries and green beans.
Aioli:
2 tablespoons fat-free mayonnaise
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
Cakes:
3 (6-ounce) cans skinless, boneless pink salmon in water, drained
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup fat-free mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs (Panko)
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning blend
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs (I used Panko)
1 tablespoon canola oil
Preparation
To prepare aioli, combine first 3 ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
To prepare cakes, combine salmon and next 5 ingredients (through mustard) in a medium bowl. Divide salmon mixture into 8 equal portions, shaping each portion into a (1/2-inch-thick) patty. Dredge patties in 1/2 cup breadcrumbs.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place patties in pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned and heated through. Serve aioli over salmon.

Sounds great! Do you mash up the salmon to mix with the other ingredients? How does that work?

Bumpity bump! I might add a bit of minced jalepeno or a dash of cayenne pepper for a bit more kick. (I like things super spicy!)0

I put this into the recipe builder (keep in mind, I did NOT put in fat free anything), and I double/triple checked calorie listings for the items (yes, I know there's still room for error), and it came to 352 calories per serving (I put a serving as 2 salmon patties, since the recipe is supposed to make 8 patties total). I included the Aioli to be put on top of the patties in the recipe calculation (I'm not a huge sauce person, so that amount described from 2 tbs mayo, etc., works for 8 patties).

Yes, if you go the fat free route, you'll save on calories, but personally, I don't consider 352 to be over the top as a serving (pair it with some fresh roasted asparagus and life is good).
eta: I only put in 1/2 cup of the panko crumbs, since I would take the original 2 tbs that goes into the patties from that).0 -
Thanks to you Both! I no longer use rapeseed oil (Canola oil) could I use coconut oil at that heat? Or is it just EVOO that you can't use at high heat?
