SLAMMIN' SALMON CRUNCHY CAKES WITH GAYLA SAUCE
These cakes will make a salmon volunteer for the honor to be in this dish. I love these crispy little suckers and so does Dugan. The delicious sauce I blatantly stole from my friend Chef #119466 who blatantly stole it from Cooking Light. There is no honor among thieves.

Steps:
- Combine ingredients for the Gayla sauce and refrigerate.
- Sautee red pepper about 3 minutes in a non stick skillet in some butter or margarine. Add chopped garlic for the last thirty seconds.
- Combine peppers and garlic and all the rest of the ingredients except corn flakes in a bowl and mix together.
- Make four equal sized balls of this mixture and roll well into cornflake crumbs. Pat crumbs firmly and make sure it is well coated.(Balls will be about the size of a small baseball).
- Place balls on platter and press into patties about 1 inch thick.
- Fry immediately in a few tablespoons of hot oil in a non stick skillet on medium high heat. (You don't want them to sit around too long or the cornflakes will absorb moisture from the patties and not fry up as crispy.) Sear them quickly but of course, do not burn them about 3 or 4 minutes a side.
- NOTE: After mixing all the ingredients together you may refrigerate this to stiffen mixture up but I don't find it necessary unless you have used a very large egg. You may also make everything ahead of time and refrigerate. Simply remove about an hour before dinner and bring to room temperature or they will be hot on the outside but cold in the middle. Just don't roll in the cornflake crumbs until the last minute.
- Another Note: For a nice variation feel free to add 1/2 tsp or so of cumin to give these a "Tex-Mex" taste topped with some chili con queso. Yum! Be creative! This is a drop-to-the-floor-crawl-to-the-door moist patty. Make it as directed the first time and then EXPERIMENT! Make it your own.

Steps:
- Remove salmon from package and rub with blackening seasoning on skin free side.
- Use just enough to cover the piece of fish but not so much that you can't see the pink behind the seasoning.
- Heat grill pan on med heat and brush lightly with olive oil (very lightly) Place salmon skin side down on pan and cook on med heat until half of the salmon (from the bottom up) is opaque.
- Flip salmon and remove skin (it will peel off very easily and usually in one piece- I place it in a small plastic bag and tie it before dropping it in the garbage can to reduce fishy odors) Cook another 5-8 minutes until the entire piece of fish is opaque and runs with a white milk like substance (healthy omega fatty acids) Serve immediately with rice or potato and veggie of your choice for a healthy meal that tastes like you're at a restaurant even when you cooked it yourself!
SLAMMIN' SOUTHWESTERN SALMON PATTIES OR SALMON CAKES
I was hungry for salmon patties, wanted something fresh tasting and healthy. Was also hungry for cilantro. This is what I came up with, it will be my only way to cook canned salmon from now on...hope you enjoy! *Note: the amounts for onion, peppers and herbs are approximate. I typically use more of all and especially more sriracha...use your discretion!

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients together in bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit, refrigerated for at least half-hour to allow flavors to blend.
- Heat non-stick skillet on med-hi, spray with olive oil spray.
- Form patties and cook in skillet for about 5 mins each side or until outside is crispy.
- The cheese helps the patties stay together and keeps everything moist. Yum!
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is firm and has a bright color. Avoid farmed salmon, which is often lower in nutrients and higher in contaminants.
- Cook salmon gently. Overcooking can dry out the fish, so cook it over low heat or at a low temperature in the oven. Salmon is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use flavorful ingredients. Salmon pairs well with a variety of flavors, so don't be afraid to experiment. Try using herbs, spices, citrus, or even fruit to enhance the flavor of the fish.
- Serve salmon with healthy sides. Salmon is a great source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, so it's important to serve it with healthy sides that will complement its nutritional value. Good options include roasted vegetables, brown rice, or quinoa.
Conclusion:
Salmon is a delicious and versatile fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you're grilling, baking, or pan-frying salmon, there are a few tips you can follow to ensure that your fish turns out perfectly. By choosing the right salmon, cooking it gently, using flavorful ingredients, and serving it with healthy sides, you can create a delicious and nutritious meal that the whole family will enjoy.
