Best Salmon Patties Recipe

Set medium skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Add diced onion and bell pepper, sauté until golden and softened, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove from heat.

In large mixing bowl, combine flaked salmon, sautéed vegetables, bread crumbs, beaten egg, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Stir gently to combine.

Using hands, form mixture into patties using about a heaping tablespoon each. Mold into 2-inch wide by 1/3 to 1/2 inch thick rounds. Let rest 5 minutes.

In clean non-stick pan, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat until hot and shimmering.

Add salmon patties to hot pan in single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown and crispy on bottom.

Carefully flip patties and cook 3 to 4 minutes more until second side is golden brown and patties are cooked through. Adjust heat if browning too quickly.

Remove finished patties to paper towel-lined plate to drain briefly. Repeat with remaining patties, adding more oil and butter as needed. Serve immediately.
