Ingredients
 

For the Salmon

  • 16 ounces fresh salmon, or canned
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • ¼ cup red bell pepper, minced
  • zest and juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 whole egg, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

For the Dill Sauce

  • cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill
  • 1 tablespoon capers
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • ½ lemon, juice and zest
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 4- 4 ounce pieces of salmon on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and a baking rack, skin side down. Brush each piece with olive oil and sprinkle salt and pepper. I added a little dried dill to mine, but this is completely optional.
  • Bake for 13-15 minutes or until cooked through. If it’s a little undercooked, that’s ok because it will finish cooking in the skillet. While the salmon is baking you can prepare the other ingredients for the patties.
  • Add the ingredients for the Creamy Dill Sauce to a small mixing bowl.
  • Whisk to combine, then set aside 3 tablespoons to use inside the salmon patties. The rest will serve as the dipping sauce for the patties.
  • Flake the salmon apart using a fork and add it to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add in the reserved 3 tablespoons of the creamy dill sauce, along with the red peppers, fresh dill, chives, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, beaten egg, almond flour, lemon juice and zest. Mix until well combined.
  • Using an ice cream scoop, form the patties and place them on the cooled baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Heat a large skillet to medium and add in the butter and olive oil. Sauté the salmon patties for a few minutes on each side or until cooked through and golden.
  • Serve with the remaining creamy dill sauce for dipping.
