Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh salmon fillet, skinless and finely chopped or ground
- 60 grams Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 stalks green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pieces brioche burger buns (optional)
- 0 optional toppings of choice (lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, etc.)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped or ground salmon, Panko breadcrumbs, egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, green onions, parsley, lemon zest, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 2
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1 inch thick. Place the patties on a plate or tray and refrigerate for 15 minutes to help them firm up and hold their shape during cooking.
Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the salmon patties to the skillet.
Step 4
Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 63°C (145°F).
Step 5
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
If using brioche buns, lightly toast them in the same skillet for 1-2 minutes.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by placing a salmon patty on the bottom half of each bun. Add your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, or a dollop of tartar sauce, then cover with the top half of the bun.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy!
