Salmon Croquettes
Ingredients:
1 lb fresh salmon filets
1 medium onion, diced
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
Old Bay Seasoning
black pepper
olive oil
3 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 c. panko breadcrumbs
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 Tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 c freshly minced parsley
Instructions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Place salmon on a foil lined baking sheet with the skin side down, rub with olive oil, season with Old Bay Seasoning and black pepper. Bake for 15 minutes or until brown. Let the salmon cool to room temperature then flake with a fork.
2. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add one Tbsp of olive oil and one Tbsp of butter. Sauté the diced onion and bell pepper to soft and slightly brown.
3. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the flaked salmon, sautéed onion and red bell pepper, panko bread crumbs, beaten eggs, mayonnaise, 1 tsp of Old Bay Seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, Worcestershire sauce and parsley. Combine then form into croquettes with an ice cream scoop. Press to 1/2 inch thick.
4. Heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil and 1 Tbsp of butter in a large skillet on medium heat. Add half of the salmon croquettes and sauté 3 to 4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate. Repeat with the second half of the croquettes.
5. Top with your favorite remoulade or tartar sauce and enjoy!
