Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 pounds center-cut salmon fillet, skin and pin bones removed
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Pinch of cayenne pepper
2 scallions, chopped
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
4 brioche buns, split
Tartar sauce and arugula, for topping

Steps:

  • Cut three-quarters of the salmon into 1/4-inch pieces. Put in a large bowl. Cut the rest of the salmon into chunks; transfer the chunks to a food processor along with the mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, lemon zest and cayenne. Pulse to make a paste. Add the pureed salmon mixture to the bowl with the diced salmon. Add the scallions, 2 tablespoons panko, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste. Gently mix until just combined.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with olive oil. Divide the salmon mixture into 4 mounds on the parchment paper. With damp hands, pat into 4-inch-wide, 3/4-inch-thick patties. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the broiler. Spread the remaining 1 cup panko on a plate. Press both sides of the salmon patties in the panko. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties (in batches if necessary) and cook until browned on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes, adjusting the heat if necessary. Turn and cook until the other side is browned and the patties feel springy in the center, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; season with salt.
  • Meanwhile, arrange the buns, cut-side up, on a broiler pan and broil until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve the patties on the buns; top with tartar sauce and arugula.

Yield Makes 10 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 tablespoons (or more) olive oil
1 cup chopped shallots (about 3 large)
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 4-ounce jar capers, drained, chopped
2 pounds chilled skinless salmon fillets, cut into 1-inch pieces, any bones removed
3 cups fresh breadcrumbs made from French bread
2 large eggs, beaten to blend
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
10 hamburger buns, split, toasted
Mayonnaise
Lettuce leaves
Tomato slices

Steps:

  • Heat 4 tablespoons olive oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high. Add white wine, lemon juice and drained capers and cook until almost all liquid evaporates, about 12 minutes. Transfer shallot mixture to large bowl. Refrigerate until shallot mixture is well chilled, about 1 hour.
  • Using on/off turns, coarsely grind salmon fillets in processor. Add ground salmon to shallot mixture. Mix in fresh breadcrumbs, beaten eggs, dill, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Form salmon mixture into 10 patties, dividing equally. (Salmon patties can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Transfer to baking sheet, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add salmon patties to skillet and cook until patties are golden brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side, adding more oil to skillet as needed. Serve salmon burgers on toasted hamburger buns with mayonnaise, lettuce leaves and tomato slices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the salmon burgers, or they will become dry.
  • Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite toppings, such as lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or dill.
  • You can also make these burgers ahead of time and freeze them for later.
  • To freeze the burgers, place them on a baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour. Then transfer the burgers to a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To cook the frozen burgers, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, cook the burgers according to the recipe instructions.

Conclusion:

Lemon salmon burgers are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their bright lemon flavor and tender texture, these burgers are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
