Prepare your ingredients by draining the canned salmon to avoid sogginess.

Combine the salmon, breadcrumbs, green onions, eggs, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix gently until everything is well combined.

Shape the mixture into patties about 1 inch thick. Place them on a parchment-lined plate.

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.

Fry the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.

Transfer the cooked patties to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve immediately with lemon wedges or tartar sauce.
