Salmon burgers are the perfect option when craving a light and flavorful meal.
Ingredients :
1 pound salmon filets skin and bones removed, divided
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
½ cup Panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
⅛ teaspoon salt more to taste
⅛ teaspoon black pepper more to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
For Serving
4 hamburger buns or brioche buns
8 leaves lettuce
½ cup tartar sauce
Directions :
Cut the salmon into ¼-inch pieces. Place ⅓ of the salmon in a food processor bowl with mustard, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, and garlic powder. Pulse until combined and almost smooth and well mixed.
Transfer the salmon mixture to a medium bowl. Add the remaining chopped salmon, breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, and pepper. Gently mix to combine.
Wet your hands with water and gently form the salmon into four patties, 4-inches wide. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the patties and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until golden brown.
To serve, top each bun with tartar sauce, lettuce, and a salmon patty.
