Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the salmon fillet, panko breadcrumbs, red onion, fresh dill, Dijon mustard, egg, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to combine.
- Shape the mixture into 1-inch balls and arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- For firmer balls, refrigerate for 30 minutes before cooking.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add salmon balls to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked salmon balls to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- In a blender, combine avocados, Greek yogurt, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
- Adjust sauce consistency with water as needed. Chill for 30 minutes for best flavor.
- Serve salmon balls with avocado sauce, garnished with dill sprigs and lemon wedges.

Notes
