Method

Halibut Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Halibut

    Finely chop the fresh halibut fillet into small pieces or pulse in a food processor until coarsely ground. Be careful not to over-process.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped halibut, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.

  4. 4

    Chill

    Place the patties on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to help them firm up.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 5

    Heat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or grill over medium heat, adding a bit of oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 6

    Cook the Patties

    Once the skillet is hot, add the halibut patties. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Burger Assembly

  1. 7

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.

  2. 8

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the halibut patty, a slice of tomato, and some red onion. Top with tartar sauce and cover with the top half of the bun.

  3. 9

    Serve

    Serve the halibut burgers immediately, with additional tartar sauce on the side if desired.
