Directions

Step 1

Cut the salmon fillets into small chunks and place them in a food processor. Pulse until coarsely ground, ensuring not to over-process.

In a large bowl, combine the ground salmon, panko breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 5

While the patties are cooking, prepare the vegetable slaw. In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrot, and thinly sliced red bell pepper.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, mayonnaise, honey, salt, and black pepper. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss until evenly coated.

Step 7

Toast the burger buns lightly in a skillet or toaster if desired.
