Easy Pan-Fried Salmon Croquettes Recipe

Ingredients

• 3 (14.75 ounce) cans salmon, drained and flaked
• 3 large eggs
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
• salt to taste
• 1 cup seafood breader
• 0.25 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed

Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine salmon, eggs, and onion. Season with cayenne pepper and salt, then mix thoroughly. Place fish fry in a separate bowl for coating.
2. Heat cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
3. As the oil heats, shape spoonfuls of salmon mixture into oval croquettes. Coat each croquette in the fish fry, ensuring all sides are covered. Repeat with the remaining salmon mixture.
4. Carefully place the croquettes in the hot oil in batches, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer cooked croquettes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Repeat until all batches are cooked.
