These air-fried salmon patties are reminiscent of classic salmon croquettes, crispy on the outside and pillowy tender on the inside. Look for canned or jarred salmon that has less than 50 milligrams of sodium per serving, and don't be afraid of varieties that have bones. They're easy to remove.

Ingredients

2 lemon wedges
1 large egg
¼ tsp. ground pepper
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 tbsp. canola mayonnaise
2 tbsp. chopped fresh dill
½ cup whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs
2 (7.5 ounce) cans unsalted pink salmon (with skin and bones)
Cooking spray

Method

01

Coat the basket of an air fryer with cooking spray.
02

Drain salmon; remove and discard any large bones and skin. Place the salmon in a medium bowl. Add panko, dill, mayonnaise, mustard, and pepper; stir gently until combined. Shape the mixture into four 3-inch-diameter cakes.
03

Coat the cakes with cooking spray; place in the prepared basket. Cook at 400°F until browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest portion registers 160°F, about 12 minutes.
