Tex-Mex Salmon Cakes
- 4 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil, Divided
- 1 cup Finely Diced White Or Yellow Onion
- 1 can (15 Oz) Salmon, Drained
- 2 cups Blue Corn Tortilla Chips, Crumbled In A Plastic Baggy
- 1 cup Cilantro, Finely Chopped
- 1 can (4 Oz.) Diced Green Chiles
- 1 Tablespoon Cumin
- 2 pinches Coarse Salt And Freshly Ground Pepper, Divided Use
- 1/2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 10 ounces, weight Baby Spinach
- 1 cup Frozen Corn
- 1 whole Roma Tomato, Diced
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium skillet over medium-high.
- Add the onion and saute until you see a little color, about 5 minutes.
- Remove onion from pan and toss into a large bowl.
- Into the same bowl, add the salmon, crushed chips, cilantro, chiles, cumin and a small pinch of salt and pepper.
- Mix to combine.
- Place the flour in a shallow dish.
- With your hands, shape the salmon mixture into 1-inch cakes.
- Dredge them through the flour, coating on both sides.
- Heat the remaining oil in a medium skillet and (if needed, do this in batches) add the cakes to the skillet and brown them on both sides.
- This will take about 6 minutes total.
- Remove patties from the pan and set aside.
- (Repeat with the remaining patties if you did it in batches).
- In the meantime, put the spinach in another pan over medium heat.
- Once its starting to wilt, add the corn and diced tomato.
- The corn will heat through as the spinach finishes wilting.
- How many times can I say WILT?
- Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Serve the salmon cakes with the corn/spinach relish and get on it.
