Grilled salmon burgers with mustard, lemon, and herbs are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. Packed with fresh ingredients and zesty flavors, these burgers are perfect for a summer cookout or a family dinner. The tangy mustard and lemon juice combined with fresh herbs like parsley and dill bring out the rich, natural taste of the salmon, making these burgers a refreshing and nutritious choice.
Instructions:
- Chop or grind the salmon to a fine consistency using a sharp knife or a food processor. Ensure there are no bones or skin.
- In a large bowl, add the chopped salmon.
- Add the onion, mustard, lemon juice, salt, fresh parsley, and dill to the bowl with the salmon.
- Gradually add the bread crumbs to the mixture.
- Use your hands or a spatula to thoroughly mix all the ingredients until well combined. The mixture should hold together well.
- Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions.
- Shape each portion into a patty approximately 1-inch thick. Ensure the patties are uniform in size for even cooking.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F).
- Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Place the salmon patties on the grill.
- Grill each side for about 4-5 minutes or until the patties are cooked through and have nice grill marks. Internal temperature should reach 145°F.
- Once cooked, remove the patties from the grill.
- Serve the grilled salmon burgers on buns of your choice with your favorite toppings and condiments. Options include lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and a dollop of extra mustard or a lemon dill sauce.
Tips:
- Ensure your salmon is fresh and of high quality to enhance the flavor of the burgers.
- Finely chop the onion to ensure even distribution throughout the salmon mixture.
- For a more seasoned taste, consider marinating the salmon with the lemon juice, mustard, and herbs for about 30 minutes before forming the patties.
- If the mixture feels too wet, add a bit more bread crumbs to help bind the ingredients.
- Use a grill or a grill pan on medium-high heat to cook the burgers, ensuring they are nicely seared on the outside while remaining moist on the inside.
- Grease the grill or grill pan lightly to prevent the burgers from sticking.
- Consider serving the salmon burgers on whole-grain buns with slices of avocado, tomato, and a dollop of tartar sauce or Greek yogurt for extra flavor.
