Salmon Burgers
From Eating Well magazine
1 pound wild salmon fillet, skinned
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion, or scallion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, or canola oil
Optional: Green goddress dressing to serve Preparation: 1.With a large chef’s knife, chop salmon using quick, even, straight-up-and-down motions (do not rock the knife through the fish or it will turn mushy) until you have a mass of roughly 1/4-inch pieces. Transfer to large bowl and gently stir in onion (or scallion), cilantro, ginger, salt and pepper, being careful not to overmix. Divide the mixture into 4 patties, about 1 inch thick. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes (or up to 2 hours) before cooking. 2.Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the burgers and cook until browned on both sides and just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes total. Serve with 1 tablespoon Green Goddess Sauce each. Serves 4.
Sounds so delicious! I wish Chris liked fish.
ReplyDeleteI love salmon burgers, especially with an Asian twist--and yours look delicious.
ReplyDeleteLooks great! If I'd simply read the recipe without your comment I'd think the same thing - “It’s just chunks of salmon! These are totally gonna fall apart!” I'm amazed they hold together without any sort of binding ingredient.
