Salmon Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the steelhead salmon filet (finely chopped or ground), breadcrumbs, egg, Dijon mustard, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the salmon mixture into two equal portions and form each portion into a patty.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns if desired. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half, followed by a salmon patty, a slice of tomato, and then the top half of the bun.

Tartar Sauce Preparation

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, diced pickles, lemon juice, chopped capers, dill, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
