A quick, delicious and nutritious way of serving salmon. You can enjoy this with or without the dressing, in a bun, or with a salad.

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) can salmon, drained and flaked
2 eggs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1/4 cup Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 pinch dried basil

Directions

1 In a medium bowl, mix together the salmon, eggs, parsley, onion, breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon of basil, and red pepper flakes. Form into 6 firmly packed patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
2 Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the patties, and cook for 4 minutes per side, or until nicely browned.
