Steps
1
In a heavy-duty medium pot, heat 1 tbsp olive oil on medium-high. In batches, stir in kale and cook 6–7 min., until kale is entirely wilted. Into kale, stir couscous, 1½ cups water, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover with a lid, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until water is absorbed, 10–12 min. Let couscous mixture stand for 5 min.
2
Drain canned salmon and finely chop green onions. Into a medium bowl, zest 1 entire lemon and squeeze 1 tbsp juice.
3
To same bowl, add salmon, bread crumbs, egg, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine and shape mixture into 8 equal-sized patties.
4
When couscous is done, fluff with a fork. Chop cucumbers and parsley. Into a large bowl, add couscous mixture, cucumbers, parsley, remaining 3 tbsp olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
5
Add canola oil to a large nonstick skillet on medium-high. Add salmon patties and cook 3 min. per side, until golden, in batches if needed. Serve with couscous. Cut remaining lemon into wedges and use as garnish.
