Ingredients

  • 17 oz skinless boneless salmon roughly chopped
  • 1 medium egg
  • 1 tbsp traditional Dijon mustard
  • 0.5 oz scallions chopped
  • 0.5 oz cilantro chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp coriander powder
  • 1/4 cup plain panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp lemon juice divided
  • 2 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter divided into 1 and 1 1/2
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 0.5 oz parsley chopped
  • 1/2 tsp garlic minced
  • 2 oz baby arugula
  • 1 oz red onion sliced
  • 4 oz tomato sliced

Instructions

  • Add chopped salmon into a food processor and pulse it several times. Scrape down the sides and repeat the process 3-4 times. We want a mixture with bits of fish instead of a mushy paste.
    step 1: Process the salmon
  • Dump the mixture into a bowl and, with a spatula, mix in the egg, mustard, scallions, cilantro, garlic powder, coriander powder, paprika, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper, and 1/2 tsp lemon juice.
    step 2: Incorporate seasonings
  • Wet your hands and form 4 patties. Place the patties onto a wide surface, such as a large cutting board or baking sheet.
    step 3: form patties
  • In that same pan, melt 1 1/2 tbsp butter and sear the patties for 5 minutes on each side. Take them out and place them onto a large, flat dish.
    step 4: Sear the patties
  • In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, parsley, garlic, and the remaining lemon juice.
    step 5: Make the sauce
  • Melt the remaining butter in a grilling pan over medium heat. Sear the buns for 2 minutes or until they are charred a bit. Take them out of the pan.
    step 6: Sear the buns
  • Assemble the burgers: bottom bun, arugula, tomato slices, red onion slices, the patty, sauce, and the top bun. Serve these burgers right away!
    step 7: Arrange the burger and serve
