Spicy Salmon Patties with Coconut Lime Glaze

A healthy and flavorful twist on classic salmon patties, featuring a vibrant coconut lime glaze.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb canned salmon, drained and flaked
  • 1/2 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp grated ginger
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or more to taste)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Coconut Lime Glaze:

  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 tsp grated ginger

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, quinoa, onion, garlic, ginger, breadcrumbs, egg, soy sauce, cumin powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a firm patty mixture.
  2. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape them into patties.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the salmon patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. While the patties are cooking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the coconut milk, lime juice, honey, and ginger in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  5. Serve the salmon patties hot, drizzled generously with the coconut lime glaze.
