  • Place the remaining Panko in a shallow bowl or plate.
  • Using a ¼-cup portioner or spoon, scoop salmon mixture into your hand and flatten and shape into a 2½-inch wide patty. Carefully place in the panko and coat both sides, gently patting the panko into the salmon mixture. Remove and repeat with the remainder of the salmon mixture.
  • Heat the large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 salmon cakes and cook until golden brown. Using a spatula, carefully turn the patties over and continuing to cook for another 5-6 minutes and the second side is golden brown and the salmon is fully cooked.
