SHRIMP BURGERS



Shrimp Burgers image

You can make a burger out of anything, as most home cooks know; the challenge is in choosing a central element that delivers superior flavor and texture. Shrimp, like scallops, contain a high amount of natural gelatin, which allows you to incorporate a considerable amount of flavorings without worrying about the burger falling apart. If you purée just a portion of the shrimp, leaving the rest - along with the flavorings - just roughly chopped, you produce a good-textured burger with powerful flavor. Feel free to vary the heat, reducing or increasing the amount of chile. And as with any burgers, these can be seasoned pretty much according to your whim. No grill? Go ahead and pan-fry these burgers with a little bit of oil over medium-high heat.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large clove garlic, peeled
1 dried or fresh chile, stemmed, seeded and deveined, or more to taste
1 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
1 1/2 pounds peeled shrimp, deveined if you like
1/4 cup roughly chopped shallots, scallions or red onion
1/4 cup roughly chopped red or yellow bell pepper, optional
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, or to taste
Neutral oil, like corn or canola, as needed
Toasted buns, optional
Lime wedges or ketchup for serving

Steps:

  • Start a charcoal or gas grill; fire should be moderately hot and rack about 4 inches from heat source.
  • Combine garlic, chili, ginger and 1/3 of the shrimp in a food processor and purée, stopping machine to scrape down sides of container as necessary. Add remaining shrimp along with shallots, bell pepper, salt, pepper and cilantro, and pulse as many times as necessary to chop shrimp, but not too finely. Shape mixture into 4 patties. Chill for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Brush grill or patties lightly with oil and place them on grill. Cook undisturbed until a dark crust appears on bottom and they release fairly easily with a spatula, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes on the other side. Serve on buns or not, as you like, with ketchup or lime juice as a condiment.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

24 butter crackers
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons canola oil
1 rib celery, finely diced (about 1/3 cup)
1/2 small red onion, finely diced (about 1/3)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons mustard powder
2 teaspoons seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay
1 large egg, beaten
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 lemon, zested
4 potato buns, split
Lettuce leaves, for garnish
Sliced tomato, for garnish
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 ripe avocado
2 cloves garlic
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 scallion, thinly sliced crosswise

Steps:

  • For the shrimp burgers: Pulse the butter crackers in a mini food processor until fine crumbs form; you should have about 1 cup. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside. Wipe out the mini food processor.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly translucent, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, transfer to a plate and set aside to cool. Wipe out the skillet.
  • Meanwhile, dice the shrimp into 1/4-inch pieces, then run your knife through half of the chopped shrimp once more. Transfer the shrimp to the bowl with the cracker crumbs. Stir in the cooled onion and celery mixture, dill, honey, mustard powder, seafood seasoning, egg, garlic, lemon zest and 3/4 teaspoon salt until the cracker crumbs fully absorb any moisture. Form the mixture into 4 patties, transfer to a plate and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the broiler to high or preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the buns on a baking sheet and broil or bake until golden, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Heat the remaining 1/2 cup oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Line a plate with paper towels. Add the shrimp patties and cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared plate.
  • For the avocado mayo: Put the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, seafood seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, cayenne, avocado, garlic and lemon juice in a mini food processor. Blend until smooth and transfer to a small bowl. Stir in the scallions.
  • Serve the shrimp burgers on the toasted buns with lettuce, tomato and the avocado mayo.

Tips for Making Crispy Shrimp Burger:

  • Use fresh, never frozen shrimp for the best flavor.
  • Make sure to devein and peel the shrimp before cooking.
  • Dry the shrimp thoroughly with paper towels before coating them in the breading mixture.
  • Use a light touch when breading the shrimp. Over-breading will make them tough.
  • Heat the oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit before frying the shrimp.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the shrimp. This will cause them to steam instead of fry.
  • Fry the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the shrimp burgers immediately with your favorite toppings.
