Awesome! I added lemon pepper seasoning and substituted italian flavored bread crumbs for the saltines because I didn't have saltines. Dipped in Asian sweet chili sauce (Caravelle brand) and they were absolutely delish!!!! This will become a weekly staple.

A really nice, simple salmon croquette recipe. I added 1 tsp dill weed and thought this added a lot of nice flavor. Also, I covered the croquettes in Panko (Japanese bread crumbs) instead of cracker crumbs. I found that the patty shape worked better than the croquette shape even though I used mashed potatoes. Excellent!
