Description

Flavorful salmon burgers are topped with a homemade lemon dill sauce. You can serve these salmon burgers plain or between 2 buns.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lbs salmon fillets (skin and bones removed)
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons fresh dill (chopped)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1 garlic clove (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh dill (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • pinch lemon pepper

Instructions

  1. Pulse: In the bowl of a food processor add the salmon and pulse until salmon is lightly ground. About 6, 5 second pulses.
  2. Mix: Transfer the salmon to a large bowl. Add the panko bread crumbs, egg, fresh dill (or parsley), salt, garlic powder, and lemon juice to the salmon. Mix everything to combine.
  3. Form: Form the mixture into 6 equal sized patties.
  4. Fry: Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once oil is hot add the patties to the skillet and fry for about 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden and slightly crisp.
  5. Sauce: In a medium size bowl whisk together the mayo, garlic, dill, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and lemon pepper.

Notes

You may need to cook your salmon patties in batches, depending on how large your skillet is. Store the lemon dill sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 10-14 days. Store leftover salmon burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
