Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

2 pounds salmon, finely diced

1 small yellow onion, finely diced

1 green bell pepper, finely diced

¾ cup panko bread crumbs

1 large egg, beaten

5 cloves garlic, minced, divided

1 tablespoon soy sauce

2 teaspoon lemon juice, divided

½ teaspoon salt

1 cup mayonnaise

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

½ teaspoon lemon pepper

Directions

Combine salmon, onion, bell pepper, bread crumbs, beaten egg, 3 cloves garlic, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and salt in a large bowl; mix until evenly blended. Shape salmon mixture into 8 equal patties.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook salmon patties in the hot skillet until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes per side.

Whisk together mayonnaise, remaining 2 cloves garlic, remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice, basil, Dijon mustard, and lemon pepper in a medium bowl until well mixed. Serve mayonnaise mixture with salmon patties.

Cook’s Note

You can use tartar sauce instead of mayo.

I usually freeze 1/2 of the salmon mixture to thaw and serve later since there are only three of us.

If you prefer to use a grill, I recommend placing a sheet of aluminum foil over the grate and spraying it with cooking spray so the fish doesn't stick and the patties don't fall apart.
