If you're thinking of making burgers for this Memorial Day weekend, may I suggest a twist to make your meal a little extra?
Sandwiched between buttery brioche buns and topped with a luscious cucumber dill sauce, these salmon burgers are a great alternative to traditional hamburgers for bbqs and perfect for meal prepping during busy weeks.
These juicy salmon burgers feel fancy, but they’re just as easy to make as a classic hamburger, but make you feel better with all those good-for-you essential fatty acids in every bite.
Fresh salmon gets a quick whirl in the food processor before it’s mixed with egg and olive oil for moisture, panko for support, and lots of fresh dill for a bright, summery flavor.
Using fresh salmon instead of canned ensures the burger patties stay super moist and prevents them from crumbling apart as soon as they hit the hot skillet or grill.
The patties are sandwiched between buttery brioche buns and topped with a rich and creamy cucumber dill sauce plus your choice of crunchy veg.
I loooove making these for meal prep because they reheat so well, and are equally as good on a salad. Just store the patties and toppings in separate containers, and you’re good to go.
Enjoy!
