Scale

Salmon Burger Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh salmon, skin removed and finely chopped
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as dill, parsley, or chives), finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the salmon mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped salmon, egg, breadcrumbs, and chopped fresh herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated but avoid overmixing to keep the texture tender.
  2. Form patties: Divide the salmon mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty approximately 3 inches in diameter and about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Cook the patties: Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, place the salmon patties in the pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until the patties are golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  4. Serve: Remove the cooked patties from the pan and let them rest a minute. Serve warm on buns or over a bed of greens with your favorite toppings and sauces.

Notes

  • Use fresh salmon for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you prefer a gluten-free option, substitute breadcrumbs with gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed almonds.
  • Be gentle when mixing to avoid overworking the salmon.
  • These burgers can be served with a variety of sauces such as tartar sauce, avocado spread, or a light yogurt dill sauce.
  • Ensure the patties are cooked thoroughly but do not overcook to prevent dryness.
