Description

A straightforward recipe for making flavorful salmon burgers at home.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh salmon fillets, skin removed
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Chop the salmon finely or pulse in a food processor until coarsely ground.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the ground salmon, breadcrumbs, egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, dill, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  3. Form the mixture into four equal patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
  4. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Cook the salmon burgers for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Remove from the skillet and serve immediately on buns with your preferred toppings.

Notes

  • You can substitute panko breadcrumbs for standard breadcrumbs.
  • For a different flavor, use fresh parsley instead of dill.
  • Cook these burgers on a grill if preferred, lightly oiling the grates first.
