I’m excited to share this simple and flavorful recipe for Salmon Parsley Patties. Living in Boise, Idaho, I don’t always have access to the freshest ocean-caught fish, so I often rely on frozen or canned options. While those choices are convenient and tasty, I do miss freshly caught seafood like dorado, halibut, shrimp, and tilapia.
I’m planning a trip back to Ecuador in September (my husband is coming along), and this time we’ll head to the coast. Preston hasn’t seen Ecuador’s coastal region yet—he’s mainly visited the Sierra in the Andes—so I’m looking forward to showing him the beaches and trying plenty of fresh seafood. I fully intend to eat so much fish that I won’t need it again for months. I’ll be sure to document the culinary highlights from the trip.
Back home in Boise, when a fish craving hits I make dishes like these Salmon Parsley Patties. I had some free time, grabbed fresh ingredients, put my hair in a ponytail, turned on some music, and set to work. These patties came together quickly and make a great last-minute lunch or dinner.
