  • 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or dill, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Burger buns
  • Lettuce
  • Tomato slices
  • Red onion slices
  • Tartar sauce or mayonnaise

Instructions

  1. Cut the salmon into chunks and place it in a food processor.

  5. Mix gently until combined.
  6. Form the mixture into 4 equal patties.
