Made with just three simple ingredients, this recipe is ideal for busy weeknights, meal prep, or anyone following a low-carb or keto lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>These patties are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and packed with protein and flavor. Even better, they come together in under 30 minutes and can be enjoyed hot or cold.<\/p>\n<h2>\u00a0Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p>To make these simple salmon patties, you\u2019ll need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2 (14\u201315 oz) cans of pink salmon, well drained and flaked<\/li>\n<li>3 large eggs<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese (dry, shaker-style works best)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Tip:<\/strong> The Parmesan cheese acts as a binder, helping the patties hold their shape while also adding a rich, savory flavor.<\/p>\n<h2>Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n<h3>1. Prepare the Salmon<\/h3>\n<p>Start by draining the canned salmon thoroughly. This step is very important because excess moisture can make your patties too soft and difficult to shape.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Press the lid gently against the salmon to squeeze out as much liquid as possible<\/li>\n<li>Transfer the salmon to a mixing bowl<\/li>\n<li>Use a fork to flake it into small pieces<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you prefer a smoother texture, you can remove any large bones or skin, although they are edible and rich in nutrients.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Mix the Ingredients<\/h3>\n<p>Add the eggs and grated Parmesan cheese to the bowl with the salmon.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stir everything together using a fork or spoon<\/li>\n<li>Mix until fully combined and evenly distributed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The mixture should be thick and slightly sticky. It should hold together when pressed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If the mixture feels too wet or loose<\/strong>, let it sit for about 5 minutes. The cheese will absorb some moisture and help firm it up.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Shape the Patties<\/h3>\n<p>Using your hands, scoop out portions of the mixture and shape them into patties.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Aim for about 2 to 2\u00bd inches wide<\/li>\n<li>About \u00bd inch thick<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You should end up with approximately 10 to 12 patties, depending on size.<\/p>\n<p>Place them on a plate or tray as you shape them.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Heat the Skillet<\/h3>\n<p>Place a large skillet over medium heat.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan<\/li>\n<li>Let the oil heat until it shimmers (but not smoking)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A cast iron skillet works especially well for achieving a crispy, golden crust.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Cook the First Side<\/h3>\n<p>Carefully place several patties into the hot skillet, leaving space between each one.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cook without moving them for 3 to 4 minutes<\/li>\n<li>Allow the bottoms to become golden brown and crispy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Avoid flipping too early, as this helps them hold together better.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Flip and Finish Cooking<\/h3>\n<p>Using a spatula, gently flip each patty.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes on the second side<\/li>\n<li>Continue until both sides are golden brown and the patties are fully cooked through<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning while ensuring even cooking.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Drain Excess Oil<\/h3>\n<p>Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels.<\/p>\n<p>This helps remove any excess oil and keeps them from becoming greasy.<\/p>\n<h3>8. Store and Serve<\/h3>\n<p>Let the patties cool slightly before serving.<\/p>\n<p>You can enjoy them:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hot and freshly cooked<\/li>\n<li>Or cold as a quick snack or meal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To store:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Place in an airtight container<\/li>\n<li>Refrigerate for up to 3 days<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Reheat in a dry skillet for best texture, or enjoy straight from the fridge.<\/p>\n<h2>\u00a0Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n<p>These salmon patties are incredibly versatile and pair well with many sides. Try serving them with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A fresh green salad<\/li>\n<li>A yogurt-based or garlic sauce<\/li>\n<li>Steamed or roasted vegetables<\/li>\n<li>Or simply on their own for a light, protein-packed meal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\u00a0Why You\u2019ll Love This Recipe<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0Only 3 ingredients<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Low in carbs and keto-friendly<\/li>\n<li>High in protein<\/li>\n<li>Budget-friendly<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Quick and easy to prepare<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\u00a0Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>These low-carb salmon patties prove that simple ingredients can create something truly delicious.
