Why This Recipe Is So Loved

These burgers are bright and flavorful, combining the rich taste of salmon with fresh citrus notes. They are light yet satisfying, making them a perfect choice for a healthy meal any time of year. Plus, they cook quickly and are easy to prepare.

Step 1

Put the salmon chunks, parsley, bread crumbs, green onion, seafood seasoning, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into a food processor. Give everything a few quick pulses until the salmon is nicely chopped but not pureed. Then, shape the mixture into four even patties.

Step 2

Heat some olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the patties and cook them for about 4 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown and cooked through. Serve warm and enjoy!

Serving Guide

Serve with a crisp green salad or sweet potato fries for a balanced meal. Adding a dollop of tangy yogurt sauce or avocado slices can enhance the flavors. A toasted bun or lettuce wrap works well to hold everything together.

How To Keep It Fresh

Store leftover patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them gently in a skillet to keep them moist. For longer storage, freeze uncooked patties separated by parchment paper and thaw before cooking.
