How to Make Asian Salmon Burgers
- Prepare all ingredients.
- Combine 1 pound salmon fillet (skin removed and roughly chopped), 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs, 1 large egg, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 2 scallions (finely chopped), and 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger in a food processor.
- Pulse until the mixture is coarsely chopped but still holds its texture; do not over-process.
- Gently form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
- Sprinkle the tops of the patties generously with sesame seeds.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and coat with cooking spray.
- Place the patties in the pan, sesame-seed-side down.
- Cook for 5 minutes, undisturbed.
- Carefully flip the patties and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the patties are golden brown.
- While the burgers cook, prepare your buns and toppings.
- Serve the Asian Salmon Burgers immediately on toasted buns. Top with a handful of fresh spinach and 2 tablespoons of pickled ginger per burger.
