I was hungry for salmon patties, wanted something fresh tasting and healthy. Was also hungry for cilantro. This is what I came up with, it will be my only way to cook canned salmon from now on...hope you enjoy! *Note: the amounts for onion, peppers and herbs are approximate. I typically use more of all and especially more sriracha...use your discretion! Ingredients:
1 (14 3/4 ounce) can salmon |
1 cup old fashioned oats (not quick cooking!) |
1/3 cup skim milk |
1 egg (i use 1/4 c eggbeaters, southwestern style) |
1/8 cup red onion, finely minced |
1/8 cup bell pepper, finely minced |
2 -4 tablespoons cilantro, fresh and minced |
2 -4 tablespoons chives, fresh and minced |
1 dash garlic powder |
1 dash lime juice |
1 -2 tablespoon sriracha sauce |
1/8 cup cheese, shredded (i use soy-sation 3 cheese blend from tj's) |
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients together in bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit, refrigerated for at least half-hour to allow flavors to blend.
2. Heat non-stick skillet on med-hi, spray with olive oil spray.
3. Form patties and cook in skillet for about 5 mins each side or until outside is crispy.
4. The cheese helps the patties stay together and keeps everything moist. Yum!
