Salmon Cakes

Crispy, flavorful salmon cakes made with fresh salmon, breadcrumbs, and a blend of herbs and spices. Perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh salmon fillet, skin removed
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place salmon fillet on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until cooked through. Let cool, then flake into a large bowl.
  3. Add breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, egg, Dijon mustard, parsley, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the salmon. Mix gently until well combined.
  4. Form the mixture into 8 equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
  5. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook salmon cakes in batches for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve warm with lemon wedges and your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

For best results, use fresh salmon rather than canned. These cakes can be made ahead and refrigerated before cooking. Serve with a simple green salad for a complete meal.
