Gluten-Free Salmon Cakes

Salmon is a delicious fatty fish that is low in calories and beneficial to most diets. There is no gluten associated with salmon or fish in general. This makes it perfect for anyone who has celiac disease or gluten intolerance.


Salmon is a tasty fish that is rich in antioxidants. They are valuable to the human body's cells as a natural fight against illnesses, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroke. Why take fish oil supplements when we can make Salmon Cakes?

This Salmon Cake recipe will highlight the flavor of the fish while keeping all the nutrients packed inside.

You will need the following ingredients:

  • 8 Ounces of Raw Salmon, Minced
  • ½ Cup of Kale, Chopped or Shredded
  • 4 Cloves of Garlic, Minced
  • 1 Teaspoon of Salt
  • 1 Teaspoon of Black Pepper
  • 1 Teaspoon of Chili Flakes
  • 1 Teaspoon of Dried Dill
  • Olive Oil

There are approximately 29 grams of Omega-3 fatty acid in every Ounce of Salmon.

Yield: 4 – 2 Ounce Salmon Cakes

Total Prep and Cook Time: 45 Minutes

Mince the salmon into small pieces.

In a mixing bowl, place the minced salmon, minced garlic, shredded kale, dill, salt, pepper, and chili flakes.

Gently mix all the ingredients until everything is completely incorporated. Be careful not to over mix, the wetness from the salmon will act as a glue.

Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, scoop a portion of the mixture and with your hands, form into a patty.

Quick Tip: Freeze patties for 10-15 minutes to allow the ingredients to stick together before cooking.

On medium heat, coat a pan with Olive Oil and sear both sides for 3 minutes. Transfer to a tray with wax paper and bake at 400° for 5 Minutes.

Garnish with sriracha to add more spice or lemon to add a zing.

Enjoy! 🙂
