Instruction

  • Season salmon with salt.

  • Set aside on a dish to cool.
  • Add the olive oil to the pan, then add the the onion, celery, red and yellow bell peppers, parsley, capers, hot sauce, Old Bay seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large saute pan over medium-low heat and cook until the vegetables are soft, approximately 18 to 20 minutes.
  • Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Flake the salmon into a large bowl.
  • Add the bread crumbs, mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard, and eggs.
  • Add the vegetable mixture and mix well.
