Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb wild salmon, skinned
2 tablespoons red onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
4 anchovy fillets, rinsed and chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon capers
2 teaspoons lemon zest, grated
1 teaspoon lemon juice
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

With a chef's knife, chop the salmon using quick, even, straight up and down motions (don't rock the knife or you will make the salmon mushy). Try to cut the salmon into 1/4" pieces.
Transfer to a large bowl and gently stir in the onion, cilantro, ginger, salt and pepper, being careful not to over mix.
Divide the mixture into 4 patties, about 1" thick.
Chill in the fridge for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours before cooking.
Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the burgers and cook until brown on both sides, and just cooked through (about 4-6 minutes total).
FOR THE SAUCE:.
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse to combine.
Serve 2 tbsp of the sauce with the salmon burgers.
