4.12 18 Published Jun 15, 2017, Updated May 21, 2024 Without really planning it this year has been all about experimenting in the kitchen and going outside of my comfort zone with seafood recipes. A few weeks ago Maria and I coconut curry mussels for the first time and this month we learned how to fillet salmon in order to make salmon burgers using fresh wild-caught salmon. Who knows what’s next? Maybe I’ll try my hand at scallops!?! Anyhow, back to these teriyaki salmon burgers! If you haven’t had a salmon burger before you are certainly missing out because oh my goodness, they are so good — especially with fresh salmon. Canned salmon will likely work, but fresh makes a big difference in the flavor and texture for this recipe. We used Asian flavors to season the salmon so the burgers have a spiced-up teriyaki vibe going on with tamari, ginger, garlic, Sriracha, honey and sesame oil. I’m not a huge fan of using processed bread crumbs so I loved that we didn’t need any type of filler to hold these burgers together. One egg worked great. This recipe was a HUGE hit over here and I’m thinking these salmon burgers might be a mainstay for any summer get-togethers we host this year. I feel like guests will be super impressed because it’s not every day you see salmon burgers being served and the flavor of these burgers is amazing, especially when topped with the spicy mayo, avocado and red onion on a toasted bun. I’m usually one to opt for a bun-less burger but I enjoyed this burger on a toasted gluten-free bun and it was quite lovely. If you do end up making these salmon burgers for a summer party, I highly recommend serving the them with baked sweet potato fries and a fun drink like this grape and lime sparkling water spritzer. It comes together in a matter of minutes with frozen grapes, sparkling water and a lime wedge. Just make sure your grapes are frozen ahead of time! For this recipe I ordered everything I needed through Kroger. I know I’ve talked about this online grocery service a bunch, but it’s so awesome and now they’re offering at-home delivery. They’ve teamed up with Uber for this so you order your groceries online and they are delivered by an Uber driver. I tested the service last month and was amazed by how convenient it was. I literally placed my order on Tuesday evening and my groceries arrived via Uber the next morning at 10:00AM. Everything was fresh and my avocados were perfectly ripe, ready to make these salmon burgers.
