- 1 pound fresh salmon fillet, skin removed and diced into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, whisked
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped dill (optional)
- Prepare your breading station: in one bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- In a separate bowl, place the flour.
- In a third bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy.
- Coat each piece of salmon in flour, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally roll it in the seasoned panko.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the salmon nuggets in batches, frying for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer the nuggets to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- For the dip, combine Greek yogurt, whole grain mustard, maple syrup, lemon juice, and dill in a small bowl, mixing until smooth.
- Serve the salmon nuggets warm alongside the zesty dip.
Notes
- For a lighter version, consider baking the salmon nuggets at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
- Incorporate fresh herbs like chives or cilantro into the dip for added flavor.
