Ingredients

  • 1 onion thinly sliced to make the caramelized onions
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 2 6 oz cans canned salmon
  • 1/3 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 cup greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 egg
  • 1 Tbsp fresh dill more to taste
  • avocado sliced optional for topping
  • dijon mustard optional for topping

Instructions

  • Start the crispy caramelized onions (optional). Heat and oil a pan on medium heat, add thinly sliced onions. Let them sauté for about 4 minutes. Turn the heat down on the pan and continue to let the onions cook down until they get browned and caramelized, turning often. Keep a close eye on them and practice patience. This can take 15-25 minutes!
  • While the onions on are on low heat and cooking down, add all the canned salmon ingredients to a large bowl (salmon, yogurt, dill, seasonings, soy sauce, breadcrumbs, eggs). Mix well with a spatula or hands.
  • Form the patties. I form 4 and gently flatten them a bit.
  • Heat the grill on medium/high heat. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side.
  • Air Fry; set to 375° and cook for about 8 minutes.
  • In the skillet; heat an oiled pan to medium heat add the patties to the pan, cook on each side for about 6 minutes or until they are browned and cooked warm through.

Notes

• Don't overcook the burgers, they will be dry if you do. Just be sure to heat them through (to cook the egg).
• Cook the onions on low and slow! Be careful not to burn them.
• Serve with yummy condiments. I highly recommend serving with dijon mustard (so good!)
• Add extra ingredients for more flavor. You can also add 1 Tbsp of capers for a little pizazz.
