Instructions:
- Prepare Fresh Salmon:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the fresh salmon with salt and pepper, then bake for 12-15 minutes or until cooked through. Let it cool, then flake the salmon using a fork.
- Mix Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, eggs, almond flour, mayonnaise, chopped parsley, chopped green onions, Dijon mustard, lemon zest, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Shape Salmon Cakes:
- Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into patties. Place the patties on a plate or tray.
- Chill in the Refrigerator:
- Refrigerate the salmon cakes for at least 30 minutes. This helps them set and holds their shape during cooking.
- Heat Cooking Oil:
- In a skillet, heat olive oil or your preferred cooking oil over medium heat.
- Pan-Sear Salmon Cakes:
- Carefully place the chilled salmon cakes in the hot skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve Warm:
- Once the salmon cakes are golden and crispy, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Serve the Keto Salmon Cakes warm.
