Salmon Patties

Here is a “burger” recipe that uses salmon in the patties. Fresh salmon works best, but you can also try frozen and thawed salmon fillets.

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 pounds king salmon fillet, skinned and de-boned
• 1 cup cubed, dry bread
• 1/2 cup diced onion
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 tablespoon rosemary
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Method:

• Prepare the salmon by cutting into strips, making sure all bones are removed,  and chopping the fish until well minced.
• In a large bowl, mix the minced salmon with bread, onion, mustard, horseradish, and eggs. Season with rosemary, salt, and pepper.
• Place in refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Form the salmon mixture into 8 burger patties. Lightly coat each patty with olive oil.
• Place salmon patties on the grill, and cook 4 or 5 minutes on each side.

The salmon patty burger gives a little variety from the summer beef version. Both are great in the own right, but appreciated separately too!
