Recipe Summary Fresh Salmon Burgers With Lemon-Yogurt Sauce

These are a little like crab cakes, but they're made with fresh salmon and grilled. The secret to juicy (not pasty!) salmon burgers is to chop the salmon coarsely with a knife.

Ingredients | Coarsely Chopped Chocolate

2 ½ pounds salmon filet, skin and pin bones removed

2 eggs, beaten

⅔ cup finely chopped parsley

¼ cup finely chopped green onions

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

½ cup plain dried bread crumbs

1 tablespoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ cup plain yogurt

2 tablespoons light mayonnaise

2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

⅛ teaspoon salt

⅛ teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons olive oil

8 brioche buns, split and toasted

2 cups fresh arugula

Directions

Chop salmon into 1/8- to 1/4-inch pieces. Transfer to a bowl with 2 eggs, 2/3 cup parsley, 1/4 cup green onions, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, bread crumbs, seafood seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; mix together with your hands. Divide into 8 equal portions and pat into 3 1/2-inch patties (1/2 inch thick). Chill, covered, at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.

Stir together yogurt, mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons parsley, 2 tablespoons green onion, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat (325 degrees F to 375 degrees F).

Brush patties with oil. Oil grate. Grill patties, turning carefully, until cooked through and a thermometer inserted in center of each patty registers 160 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve on buns with sauce and arugula.

Avoid the temptation to use your food processor to chop the salmon. The secret to juicy (not pasty!) salmon burgers is to chop the salmon coarsely with a knife.
