Ingredients:
1.5 pounds, skinless, boneless salmon
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
2 shallots, peeled and cut into chumks
1/2 cup coarse bread crumbs ( I used Panko)
1 tablespoon capers, drained
salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
lemon wedges and or hot sauce to taste
Directions:
- Cut salmon into large chunks and place about 1/4 in food processor along with the mustard
- Turn on machine and let it run until mixture becomes pasty
- Add shallots and remaining salmon and pulse until fish is chopped and well combined with puree
- Scrape mixture into a bowl and by hand add bread crumbs, capers, salt and pepper
- Shape into 4 burgers, place oil in pan on medium high heat
- Cook burgers 2-3 minutes per side, peek inside to see if they are done by cutting a small slit in the meat
- Serve over greens or on a bun
