Salmon Burger with Cucumber Mustard-Dill Sauce
Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 6 minutes | Total Time: 21 minutes
Ingredients
- 4 portions Vital Choice wild Alaskan sockeye salmon (6 ounces), defrosted and finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
- 6 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons minced shallots, divided
- 1/4 cup Vital Choice organic extra virgin olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
- 1/2 cucumber, peeled and seeded and cut into small dice (about 5 to 6 tablespoons)
Instructions
- Mix the salmon thoroughly in a medium bowl with the tarragon, 4 tablespoons dill, 2 tablespoons shallot, salt and pepper. Form into four patties and refrigerate until ready to cook.
- Make the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, 1 tablespoon shallot, 2 tablespoon dill, vinegar, olive oil, and cucumber. Set aside.
- Warm the oil (enough to coat the bottom of the pan) in a large cast iron or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook about three minutes per side, until burgers are cooked through with a little pink in the middle.
- Serve on or off the bun, slathered with cucumber sauce.
