Gluten-FreeHigh Protein

A 475-calorie Lunch recipe from MunchInIt. Serves 2. Prep 10 min, cook 15 min.

Ingredients

• 250g fresh salmon fillet, skinless and boneless
• 100g fresh spinach
• 1 large egg
• 2 tbsp gluten-free oat flour
• 1 tsp dried dill
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp olive oil (for pan-frying)
• 4 tbsp plain Greek yogurt (2% fat)
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

1. Prep: Pat the salmon dry and finely chop or flake it into a medium bowl. Roughly chop the spinach and add to the salmon.
2. Add the egg, gluten-free oat flour, dried dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the salmon and spinach mixture. Mix well to combine.
3. Form the mixture into 4 equal fritters. They might be soft, so handle gently.
4. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Carefully place the fritters in the hot pan.
5. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Ensure internal temperature of salmon reaches 145°F (63°C).
6. While fritters cook, mix the Greek yogurt with lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper for a simple cooling sauce.
7. Serve the hot fritters immediately with a dollop of the lemon-yogurt sauce and a sprinkle of fresh parsley, if desired.
