Instructions

1. 1

   Place salmon, salt, Old Bay, and Cajun seasoning in a food processor. Pulse until only bite-sized pieces remain. Transfer to a bowl. Gently fold in onion, bell pepper, garlic paste, parsley, mustard, mayonnaise, eggs, and panko, mixing thoroughly with your hands, leaving larger pieces intact.

2. 2

   Form into 4 equal patties. Place the patties on a large plate.

3. 3

   Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (225 degrees C). Line a small baking sheet with foil and place in the oven.

4. 4

   Heat olive oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, place patties in the pan. Cook for 2 minutes on one side. Transfer patties to the prepared baking sheet.

5. 5

   Bake patties in the preheated oven for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the oven; turn patties over and bake for 1 to 2 minutes more.

6. 6

   Line a plate with paper towels; transfer patties to the plate to drain any excess oil. Top each patty with a generous dollop of tartar sauce, garnish with fresh dill, and squeeze fresh lemon juice over to serve.
