Instructions

Step 1

Start by tossing the salmon chunks, parsley, bread crumbs, green onion, seafood seasoning, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper into a food processor. Give it a few quick pulses until the salmon is nicely chopped but not completely smooth. Then, shape the mixture into four even patties.

Step 2

Heat some olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the patties and cook them until they’re golden brown, about 4 minutes on each side. Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn, and once they’re cooked through, they’re ready to enjoy!
