When you bake the salmon for your Salmon Cakes yourself, you get a salmon patty so juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside that you won't believe your mouth.
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Place the salmon fillet on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through. Allow to cool, then flake the salmon with a fork into small pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, beaten egg, panko breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, diced onion, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Form the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the salmon cakes and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Serve the salmon cakes hot with a side of lemon wedges or your favorite tartar sauce.
