By Nanasjoy

Ingredients

• 1-1/4 pounds salmon fillets
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon grated lime peel
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 cup coarsely ground pistachios
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• Lime wedges

Preparation

Step 1

In a large nonstick skillet, bring 4 cups water to a boil.

Reduce heat; add fillets and poach, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Remove from pan and cool slightly.

In a large bowl, combine the egg, bread crumbs, mustard, lime peel, salt and pepper.

Shred salmon with two forks; fold into bread crumb mixture. Shape into eight patties. Coat both sides with pistachios.

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook patties in oil in batches for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

Serve with lime wedges.
