Salmon is full of healthy fats called omega-3s

Serves 4

In a medium bowl, combine salmon, chopped pepper, green onion, and parsley. Set aside.

Lightly whisk together mayonnaise, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, egg, and lime juice in a separate bowl. Add to salmon mixture and season with black pepper.
Fold in ½ cup bread crumbs and shape into 8 patties. (Add additional ¼ cup bread crumbs if needed to form patties.) Refrigerate for 20 minutes until just firm.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine sriracha sauce ingredients and set aside.
