Description
Delicious crispy salmon strips paired with a creamy herb tartar dip, perfect for family dinners or entertaining guests.
Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into strips
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredient station by placing the flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in a second bowl, and Panko breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a third bowl.
- Dip each salmon strip into the flour, shaking off excess, then coat it in the beaten eggs, and finally dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
- Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded salmon strips in batches, ensuring the pan is not overcrowded.
- Fry the strips for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the strips and let them drain on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
- Combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, parsley, capers, salt, and pepper in a small bowl for the herb tartar dip. Mix well.
- Serve the crispy salmon strips hot with the herb tartar dip on the side.
Notes
For added flavor, let the breaded salmon strips sit for a few minutes before frying. Use freshly chopped herbs in the dipping sauce for a burst of flavor.
