Salmon Burgers
Report
Salmon burgers make a great alternative to beef burgers. Made with only a few ingredients, they're nutrient-dense, protein-packed, and fun for summer grilling!

Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon fillets
- 1 tablespoon Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 lemon zested
- 2 green onions chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill chopped
- ½ cup breadcrumbs
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Bun lettuce and tartar sauce for serving
Instructions
- Finely chop half the salmon and set aside. Cut the other half salmon into large-sized chunks, and place them in the bowl of a food processor. Add the greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and lemon zest and blend, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary, until the mixture becomes pasty.
- Remove the blade from the food processor. Fold in the reserved chopped salmon along with the green onions, dill, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.
- Shape into four burger patties.
- Heat a grill to medium and brush the grates with oil or heat olive oil on medium heat in a large nonstick skillet or grill pan. Cook the salmon burgers for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, turning once.
- Serve on burger buns with tartar sauce and lettuce, if desired.

Notes
- Nutritional label is for the salmon patty only and does not include toppings or bun.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 4 days in the fridge.
- Freezing Instructions: You can also freeze patties before or after cooking for up to 3 months. To freeze, stack them between wax or parchment paper in a freezer-safe container. Alternatively, you can freeze them on a baking sheet, then place them all together in a ziplock bag. To re-heat, thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stovetop or microwave.
- Equipment: I use the Kitchen Aid 7-Cup Food processor to make the salmon patties. It has a high and low pulse speed so you can blend the salmon well to stay put when forming the patties.
- Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
- Instead of breadcrumbs, you can use all-purpose flour.
- To make it gluten-free, you can use quick oats, almond flour or panko breadcrumbs.
