America's Test Kitchen's Shrimp Burger image

I watched a video of these shrimp burgers on Tube and thought they sounded great. I'm going to make these for dinner today with red cabbage coleslaw. I'll cook the burgers on a charcoal grill but pan frying would be tasty too.

1 slice fresh white bread
1 1/2 lb fresh shrimp
1/4 c mayonnaise
2 scallions,sliced thin
2 t minced fresh parsley
2 t. lemon zest
1/8 t salt
1/8 t. pepper
pinch of cayenne
2 t. canola oil or butter

1/2 c sour cream
1 t. cilantro,minced
2 t. siracha sauce (atk used a chipolte sauce)
2 t. lime juice
1/2 t. salt
1 garlic clove,minced

Steps:

  • 1. Pulse the bread in a food processor to coarse crumbs, about 4 pulses, and transfer to a bowl (you should have about 3/4 cup crumbs). Wipe the food processor clean, and pulse the shrimp until there is an even mix of finely minced and coarsely chopped pieces, about 7 pulses. Whisk the mayonnaise, scallions, parsley, lemon zest, salt, pepper, and cayenne together in a large bowl until uniform. Gently fold into the processed shrimp and breadcrumbs until just combined. Scrape the shrimp mixture onto a small baking sheet, divide it into 4 equal portions, and loosely pack each into a 1inch-thick patty. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Brush burgers with oil on both sides.Grill 5-7 minutes on each side on medium heat of gas grill.

  • 3. Sauce:Combine all ingredients together.Stir until well mixed.
