Salmon Patties for Lent

 

Salmon Patties for Lent

Ingredients:

2 - 6 oz. salmon filets uncooked

1-cup panko bread crumbs

½-cup chickpea flour

1-teaspoon NM red chile powder

2 green onions sliced

¼ cup diced green bell pepper

1 large egg

2 tablespoons lemon juice

Zest of one lemon

1 teaspoon dried dill

¼-teaspoon salt

¼-teaspoon black pepper

 

Directions:

Bring one cup of water to a low boil in a medium sized saucepan.  Add the salmon filets and cook for about 10 minutes.  The salmon will flake easily when done, let it cool down a bit before removing it from the skin.  Once cooled, flake the salmon in a medium to large bowl, add all ingredients, and mix until everything is well combined and patties hold together.  Form 3 inch in diameter patties, about ½ of an inch thick.  This recipe should yield about 8 patties.  Spray a nonstick pan with canola oil and place 3 patties at a time to cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.
