How to Make So Easy Salmon Patties

  1. Sauté 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion in 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat until softened but not browned (about 5 minutes).
  2. Drain any excess liquid from 1 (14.75 ounce) can of salmon.
  3. In a medium bowl, gently combine the cooked onion, drained salmon, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. If using plain breadcrumbs, stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
  4. Form the salmon mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
  5. Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Cook the salmon patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Place the cooked patties on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
