Lemony Salmon Burgers with Garlic Aioli and Arugula

Salmon burgers offer a host of opportunities to create the comfort food that makes memories. How often have we heard from customers, “My grandmother used to make salmon cakes, and I loved them!” This one recipe we like on the boat. We buy large cases of lemons to take to Alaska. Fresh lemons last surprisingly well, and add a nice touch to boat cooking.

Instructions

Lemony Salmon Burgers

  • Combine all ingredients and form into cakes. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 1 day.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Heat oil in your favorite frying pan on medium high heat(we like cast iron).
  • Once the oil has heated cook the burgers on each side until golden brown and transfer into the oven and cook for 10 more minutes.
  • On toasted bun spread freshly made garlic aioli and place a small amount of fresh arugula and a burger patty. Add any other condiments you prefer; fresh heirloom tomatoes or red onion would both be delicious.

Garlic Aioli

  • Combine the garlic, egg, lemon juice, parsley, salt and pepper in a food processor or blender and puree. Add the oil in a slow stream and continue to process until the mixture has formed a thick emulsion.
