Simple salmon burgers for a quick homemade dinner.
Ingredients
Salmon Burgers:
- 1 lb. Scottish salmon, remove skin and chop small
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ cup sweet onion, diced small, almost minced
- ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs, or Italian
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Yogurt Sauce:
- ½ cup Greek yogurt, plain
- 1 clove garlic, minced

- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped small
- 2 teaspoons capers
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Equipment
- 1 skillet
- 1 food processor
Instructions
- Deskin and remove pin bones from the salmon filet, if it’s not already done for you. Next, cube salmon into medium-sized pieces.
- Add cubed salmon to a food processor, lightly chop. (Be careful to not over chop salmon. It will make the patties get too dense when cooked.)
- Remove the salmon from the food processor and place in a small mixing bowl. Then, add the mustard, finely diced onion, panko breadcrumbs, salt and black pepper. Gently combine.
- Form salmon mixture into four evenly sized burger patties. Lightly spray a skillet with cooking spray and cook patties for 4-5 minutes on each side over medium heat. (This will give you a medium-temperature burger.)
- For the lemon dill yogurt sauce, combine plain yogurt, capers, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt and pepper. in a small bowl. Add toppings of your choice to burgers and finish with a dollop of yogurt sauce.
