Prep Time20 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb salmon fillet skin removed and finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for baking
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking sheet with a little olive oil or nonstick spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped salmon, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, fresh parsley, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is well combined.
  • Form the salmon mixture into small meatballs, about the size of a tablespoon, and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and bake for 12-15 minutes, until firm and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  • While the meatballs are baking, prepare the avocado sauce by blending together the ripe avocado, sour cream, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  • Serve the warm salmon meatballs with a generous drizzle of the tangy avocado sauce. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.
