Cheezy Salmon Patties

2 cans (5 oz. each) boneless, skinless salmon, drained
1 egg
1/4 cup instant mash potatoes
3/4 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
Panko bread crumbs
oil for cooking

In a bowl mix salmon, egg, instant potatoes and cheese.  Cover and let sit for about 30 minutes.  Shape into patties, press into Panko, both sides.  Heat enough oil to lightly cover the bottom of your frying pan.  Cook patties on medium heat for 4 -  5 minutes on each side.  Patties should be golden brown with a crisp outside. Makes 6-8 depending on size.

I love Salmon Patties and am always looking for a new way to make them.  When I came up with this idea I just knew it had to work and boy did it.  The outside is crisp and the inside is moist and tasty.
