Ingredients
- 1 (14.7 oz) can salmon or 3 (5 oz) cans tuna, drained
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup whole-wheat panko bread crumbs
- ⅓ cup cornmeal
- ½ cup chopped red or green bell pepper
- ¼ cup chopped red onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Cooking spray
- ⅓ cup nonfat Greek yogurt
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- Lemon wedges, to serve (optional)
Steps
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. In a large bowl, combine the salmon or tuna, egg, mayonnaise, bread crumbs, cornmeal, bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until combined.
- Using ⅓-cup measure, shape mixture into patties. Cut a piece of parchment to fit into air fryer basket and coat with the cooking spray.
