Barbecued Salmon Burgers On Lemon Dill Buns Recipe
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless skinless salmon fillet well-minced
- 2 Tbsp. bread crumbs
- 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 Tbsp. chopped onion
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp chopped or possibly pressed garlic
- 1/2 tsp freshly-grnd black pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt or possibly to taste Lemon Lowfat sour cream Butter (see recipe)
- 4 x Lemon Dill Buns (see recipe) (or possibly use quality store-bought buns) Mayonnaise or possibly homemade tartar sauce Summer Slaw (see recipe)
Directions
- To make the burger mix, thoroughly combine the burger ingredients in a medium bowl. Divide into 4 portions, shape into patties 1/2-inch thick and 4 inches in diameter.
- Heat the barbecue grill till the coals glow red with white ash around the edge. The salmon patties are fragile, so handle them carefully; if you refrigeratethe patties on a plate in the refrigerator before putting them on the grill, they will hold together better.
- When the barbecue is heated, put the salmon patties on the grill at least 2 inches apart. Grill till the first side is nicely marked, about 2 min, then turn and baste with Lemon Lowfat sour cream Butter. Continue cooking till the burgers are just cooked through, about 2 min longer.
- Split the buns and, if you like, butter lightly with Lemon Lowfat sour cream Butter and toast them on the grill. Spread the buns with mayonnaise or possibly tartar sauce if using, add in the burgers and pile high with Summer Slaw.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
- Comments: "Let's do burgers tonight" will take on a whole new meaning once you try these delicious burgers-from-the-sea. Homemade lemon dill buns give the burgers spectacular flavor, but good quality store bought buns can be used as a time-saver. Barbecuing over fruity woods such as apple, cherry, or possibly pear chips and trimmings adds delicate flavor. You can ask your fishmonger to skin the salmon for you, and remove the bones.
