Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Salmon Burgers with Lemon Yogurt Sauce.
Step 1
Start by chopping your salmon fillets into small, bite-sized pieces, roughly 1/8 to 1/4 inch in size.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped salmon with beaten eggs, fresh parsley, sliced green onions, zesty lemon juice, bread crumbs, seafood seasoning, salt, and a dash of black pepper.
Step 3
Get your hands in there and mix everything together until it’s well blended; this is where the magic happens! Once combined, divide the mixture into eight equal portions and shape each one into a patty about 1/2 inch thick and 3 1/2 inches in diameter.
Step 4
To help the patties hold their shape, cover them and pop them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours if you have the time.
Step 5
This little step makes a big difference! When you’re ready to cook, preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grill grate to keep those delicious patties from sticking.
Step 6
Before grilling, brush each salmon patty with a bit of oil for extra flavor and moisture.
Step 7
Grill the patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, turning them gently to avoid breaking.
Step 8
You’ll know they’re ready when they reach an internal temperature of at least 145°F (63°C).
Step 9
While the patties are grilling, whip up a refreshing lemon yogurt sauce by mixing yogurt, mayonnaise, parsley, green onion, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until it’s smooth and creamy.
Step 10
Now it’s time to assemble your masterpiece! Serve the grilled salmon burgers on soft brioche buns, generously topped with the zesty lemon yogurt sauce and a handful of fresh arugula for that perfect crunch.
Step 11
Enjoy every bite of this delightful dish that’s sure to impress your family and friends!.
