Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

For Burger:

  • 1 (16 ounce) can salmon, drained and flaked

  • 2 eggs

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion

  • ¼ cup Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • ½ teaspoon dried basil

  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

For Dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1 pinch dried basil

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the salmon, eggs, parsley, onion, breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon of basil, and red pepper flakes. Form into 6 firmly packed patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
