For best results, choose salmon from the meaty center of the fish and avoid portions cut from the tail section (where the body starts to taper). Tail-end flesh contains more connective tissue than center-cut fillets. Use black sesame seed buns, if available. Ingredients:
1 pound skinless center-cut salmon fillets, cut into 1-inch pieces, divided |
2 tablespoons dijon mustard, divided |
2 teaspoons grated lemon rind |
2 tablespoons minced fresh tarragon |
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots (about 1 small) |
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 cup arugula leaves |
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion |
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil |
cooking spray |
4 (1 1/2-ounce) hamburger buns, toasted |
Directions:
1. Place 1/4 pound salmon, 1 tablespoon mustard, and rind in a food processor; process until smooth. Spoon puree into a large bowl. Place remaining 3/4 pound salmon in food processor; pulse 6 times or until coarsely chopped. Fold chopped salmon, tarragon, shallots, salt, and pepper into puree. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions, gently shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty. Cover and chill until ready to grill.
2. Preheat grill to medium heat.
3. Combine the remaining 1 tablespoon mustard and honey in a small bowl, and set aside.
4. Combine arugula, onion, juice, and oil in a medium bowl. Set aside.
5. Lightly coat both sides of burgers with cooking spray. Place patties on a grill rack; grill 2 minutes. Carefully turn patties, and grill for an additional 1 minute or until desired degree of doneness. Place 1 patty on bottom half of each bun; top each serving with 1 1/2 teaspoons honey mixture, 1/4 cup arugula mixture, and top half of bun.
