* 1 14.75oz can of Salmon (I use Double “Q”) * 1/4 cup minced red bell pepper * 1/4 cup minced onion * 1 garlic clove, minced * 10 Ritz crackers * 1 tablespoon mayonnaise * 1 egg * 3/4 teaspoon lemon juice * 1/2 teaspoon salt * 1/8 teaspoon pepper
**Instructions:**
1. Start by sauteeing the pepper and onion in a little butter over medium heat. Season with a little salt and sweat down for about 3 minutes. Then add in the garlic for another minute and set aside. 2. Then place 10 Ritz crackers into a bag and smash with a tenderizer, rolling pin, or pommel (the butt end of your knife) until they’re the consistency of breadcrumbs. 3. Next, remove the skin and bones from the salmon. Be gentle during this step so you can see where the fillets are and remove the bulk of the bones quickly, Use your thumb to gently slide the skins off and tiny bones. This part may take a little extra time the first go around, but it gets much quicker once you’ve done it a few times. Don’t be upset if you still have a few tiny bones in the mix, they’re very soft and are hardly noticeable once cooked. The bones and skin are totally edible, but I try to remove as much as I can. 4. Now you can mix everything together. In a mixing bowl combine all the ingredients, including the sauteed onion and pepper. Mix until the egg and breadcrumbs are completely dispersed. I normally use a fork for this to break up the salmon. If you like larger salmon pieces don’t mash or mix as much. 5. You can dredge them in a little flour, but I normally cook them as is. Place a little butter or oil in a skillet and cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden. 6. Serve with homemade tartar sauce (recipe above), mashed potatoes, and garlicky green beans..and enjoy!

Wonderful, a classic southern food that I’m surprised doesn’t get more attention. My mom makes this for my family and it has always been my favorite home-cooked southern meal – I would request it for my birthday!
Edit: It goes extremely well with mashed potatoes or Mac and cheese as well. Never did tartar sauce at home but lemon juice on top is always a treat 🙂
