Ingredients
  

  • 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

Method
 

  1. Prepare your breading station: in one bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. In a separate bowl, place the flour.
  3. In a third bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy.
  4. Coat each piece of salmon in flour, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally roll it in the seasoned panko.
  5. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Add the salmon nuggets in batches, frying for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Transfer the nuggets to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  8. For the dip, combine Greek yogurt, whole grain mustard, maple syrup, lemon juice, and dill in a small bowl, mixing until smooth.
  9. Serve the salmon nuggets warm alongside the zesty dip.
