Tuna or Salmon Burgers image

These high-protein burgers are a great way to edge away from beef and still feel like you're eating a burger. If you sear them quickly they'll be nice and moist.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound center-cut tuna fillet, dark meat and connective tissue trimmed away, or salmon fillet preferably wild, skin and small bones removed
1/4 cup finely minced shallot or green onion
2 tablespoons capers, drained, rinsed and coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Olive oil for the griddle or pan
Lime wedges for garnish
Whole grain hamburger buns
condiments of your choice

Steps:

  • Mince the fish using a sharp knife. Do not use a food processor. Add the remaining ingredients (except the olive oil and lime wedges) and blend together with a spatula or spoon. Shape into 1/2-inch thick patties and refrigerate, if possible, for 1 hour.
  • Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or a griddle over medium-high heat. Brush with olive oil and turn the heat to medium. Sear the patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, depending on how cooked you want the interior to be. Serve on buns, if desired, with the condiments of your choice.
