1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 small jar roasted red peppers, finely chopped

Gently form into eight 3/4-inch-thick patties and freeze until just firm, about 10 minutes.Put the remaining breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl. Press the salmon cakes in the breadcrumbs to coat both sides. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon cakes and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the cakes are heated through, 6 to 8 minutes.Toss the greens with the remaining vinaigrette in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper.Divide the salmon cakes among 4 plates (2 per plate). Add a mound of salad to each plate and a lemon wedge.Source: foodnetwork.comRecipe formatted with the Cook'n Recipe Software from DVO Enterprises.
