Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 cups finely shredded green cabbage
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced white onion, optional
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp capers, drained
- 1 tsp fresh dill, chopped
- salt and pepper
- 1 package Trader Joe’s Salmon burgers (4 per pack)
- Trader Joe’s Salmon Rub
- sliced tomatoes, for topping
- 4 brioche burger buns
- Frozen french fries, optional for serving with the burgers
Instructions
- Preheat oven for cooking frozen fries if you plan to serve them with burgers.
- Make the slaw. Place cabbage, onions (if using), lemon juice, mayo, capers, dill in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and mix until combined. Store in the fridge while you cook the burgers.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat with an even coat of oil on the bottom of the pan.
- Add the burgers and sprinkle each one with a little salmon rub. Cook 3-4 minutes and flip. Sprinkle the other side with rub and cook until an internal temp of 160F is reached using a meat thermometer. Flip the burger one more time before removing just to melt in the rub.
- I like to toast the buns before serving. I usually just throw them on the cooking sheet with the fries during the last 3 minutes of cooking.
- Serve salmon burgers on a bun, topped with slaw and sliced tomatoes. Enjoy!
