Southwestern Salmon Burgers - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb salmon fillet, skin removed
    3/4 cup blanched almond flour
    2 large eggs
    1 red bell pepper, diced into 1/4-inch cubes
    1 tablespoon finely chopped scallion (both white and green parts)
    1 teaspoon sea salt
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper
    1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
    2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
Preparation
    Rinse the salmon, pat dry, and cut into 1/4-inch cubes.
    In a large bowl, combine the salmon, almond flour, eggs, bell pepper, cilantro, scallions, salt, cumin, chipotle, and lime juice. Form the mixture into 2-inch patties.
    Heat the grapeseed oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4 to 6 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer the patties to a paper towel-lined plate and serve hot.
    NOTE: You can find BLANCHED almond flour at www.nutsonline.com, www.honeyvillegrain.com or www.lucyskitchenshop.com. Canned salmon could be used for the salmon filet, and may hold together better, but I don't have experience with the substitution.
