Salmon Burgers

Hi Everyone, what do you like to make with canned Salmon?

I am sharing my current favorite recipe to make with canned salmon, these Salmon burgers!

Of course, you can also use leftover salmon or fresh cooked salmon too. This recipe uses 3 cans of salmon.

The canned salmon that I used for these photos is "tuna style" so it looks a little lighter, less pink than regular salmon.

Recipe Process Photos for Salmon Burgers

I use chives in the photos in this post, you can use a mixture of herbs, depending on what you like.

Herbs like dill, parsley and cilantro also go well with fish.

I love fresh garlic in this recipe but you can also substitute garlic powder in case you do not have fresh garlic.

You can use ½ teaspoon garlic powder.

Salmon Vs. Tuna

You can also use canned tuna, in place of canned salmon, in the same amount.

Ingredients

• 3 (5 ounce) cans of Salmon
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• ¼ cup chopped fresh herbs, like chives, parsley, cilantro or dill
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar or fresh lemon juice
• 1-2 tablespoons regular olive oil, plus more, if needed

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, add salmon, eggs, Panko breadcrumbs, kosher salt, garlic, herbs and lemon juice or vinegar and combine everything evenly. Form the burgers into 6 evenly sized patties.
2. In a skillet over medium heat (I use a cast iron skillet), add olive oil, fry the salmon burgers 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown on each side. When they are done, transfer them to a plate covered in paper towel to absorb the grease. Enjoy!
