Salmon Croquettes – Spend With Pennies

Salmon Croquettes are crispy on the outside and delicious on the inside.

Chunks of salmon, breadcrumbs, herbs, and seasonings are formed into patties and baked or pan-fried until crisp.

  • Croquettes are fried patties or rolls with breadcrumbs and meat or fish.
  • They are often fried until crisp although I like to bake them too.
  • Croquettes are very similar to salmon patties and croquettes, although my salmon patties are more simplistic.
  • Serve these as an appetizer or a light dinner served with a lemon-tossed salad or roasted vegetables.

Ingredients for Salmon Croquettes

Salmon: Choose fresh salmon if possible—leftover salmon works well. If you’re making grilled salmon, add a few extra fillets to make these salmon cakes. Canned salmon can also be used.

Breadcrumbs & Eggs: These two ingredients help hold everything together. Panko breadcrumbs can be replaced with cracker crumbs also work. If using regular breadcrumbs, use 2 tablespoons less because the have a finer texture.

Flavors: Fresh herbs, old bay seasoning, a bit of finely diced red onion, or a dash of Worcestershire sauce add great flavor to this recipe.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

To freeze, place them on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze until solid, about 1-2 hours. Then, transfer the frozen croquettes to a freezer-safe container or a resealable plastic bag, separating layers with parchment paper. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flaked salmon, panko bread crumbs, egg, garlic, chives, red bell pepper, mayonnaise, parsley, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Gently combine the ingredients.

  • Using a slightly heaping ¼ cup measuring cup, scoop the mixture and form it into 9 patties. Press them together gently but firmly so they hold their shape and don’t fall apart during baking.

  • Place the salmon croquettes on the prepared baking sheet, and bake them in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes or until they’re lightly browned and cooked through.

To Fry Salmon Patties: Add remaining olive oil to a 12-inch skillet and set over medium-high heat. Once hot, cook patties for about 5 minutes per side or until golden brown on both sides.
The patties won’t hold together as tight as a hamburger so be gentle when handling them.
Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat on a frying pan until heated through.
