While not a traditional burger, these salmon burgers are so much better! With a paste and pieces of whole salmon, these burgers are juicy and satisfy any sandwich cravings! When paired with a dill aioli, there couldn't be anything better for any season of the year!
Remove skin from the filets and cut into 1-inch cubes. Place about ¾ of the salmon in a food processor. Add the white beans, scallions, capers, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
1 ½ lb salmon (about 5 filets), ½ cup white navy beans, 1 tbsp capers, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 scallions (white and light green parts), 1 ½ tsp kosher salt, ¾ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Pulse the food processor until the salmon and beans are a thick paste, about five 5-second pulses. Add the remaining salmon and pulse a few times to combine.
Form the salmon into six equal burgers. Flatten the burgers out to about four inches in diameter and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Heat 1 tbsp neutral oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add the burgers to the skillet. Cook the burgers until a golden crust is formed on both sides and the inside of the burger reaches 120°F, about 3-4 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove from skillet and serve with dill aioli (or any desired sauce).
