This was a really enjoyable meal made almost exclusively from vegetables from Grow Alabama and a simple package of salmon.
Honestly, this is more of a “throw it in the pot” kind of recipe. I didn’t take extra care to right down exact amounts.
Okra, Corn and Tomatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small onion, diced
about 10 pieces okra, cut into 1/3-1/2 inch pieces
2 large ears of corn, cut from the cob
1 large tomato, seeded and chopped roughly
salt, pepper and cayenne pepper to taste
1/4 to 1/3 cup white wine
Heat olive oil in skillet. Add garlic and onion. Saute over medium heat until softened. Add okra and corn. Cook for 2-4 minutes. Add tomato and seasoning. Cook for 3-5 minutes. Add enough white wine (or water) to keep from sticking. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5-10 minutes more.
Salmon Patties
1 package salmon (the plastic pack with skin/bone free salmon is my favorite, but drained canned salmon would work fine, too)
1 clove chopped garlic
2 green onions, chopped
1-3 tablespoons reduced-fat mayo
1 teaspoon stone ground mustard
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 -1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
garlic salt, pepper and cayenne pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
Mix ingredients together, adding additional mayo or breadcrumbs to reach the correct consistency (one that will form a nice patty). Form into two large patties. Coat patties with an additional breadcrumbs, patting into patties. Heat olive oil over medium heat in a cast iron skillet until hot. Add patties and cook approximately 3-4 minutes per side, until golden. Top with tarter sauce or a dollop of mayonnaise mixed with mustard and cayenne pepper.
