    Spinach Feta Salmon Burgers

    My Spinach Feta Salmon Burgers recipe is highly customizable for a delicious salmon burger! Healthy and full of flavour, and kind of elegant!

    Today’s recipe is one of those things I threw together once, made some notes on - after the fact - and kept on making.

    Rather than actual directions, it was basically vague measurements like “two big handfuls of spinach” and “some fresh dill”. Everything was eyeballed.

    At some point, I posted my “non-recipe recipe” on my Facebook page, but the time has come to actually do it up as a proper recipe and share it with you.

    Customizing Spinach Feta Salmon Burgers

    Now, as you can tell by the genesis of this recipe, there’s a lot of room for variation.

    Add more dill and/or green onions if you like - or skip it, whatever.

    You can add a little or a lot of spinach - I’ve made it everywhere from about 1 cup, to - as pictured - 2 cups of spinach. I prefer it a bit closer to the 1 cup mark, my husband prefers it at 2 cups.

    À chacun son goût.

    If you can’t find shredded Feta, you can use crumbled - just drain it really well, measure about ½ cup (it’s far more salty than shredded, for some reason!), and crumble it finely.

    Usually, I like to add a lot of stuff to a burger, as you could probably tell by some of my past recipes, like my Vegetarian Chorizo Burger with Grilled Poblano and Cilantro Pesto, Moroccan Spiced Lamb Burger with Pea Hummus, Goat Cheese, and Beets, Tandoori Spiced Chicken Burger with Mango, Paneer "Indian Cheeseburgers", and my
    Apple Chicken Burgers with Basil and Gouda.

    ... For these Spinach Feta Salmon Burgers, though, I tend to eat it pretty plain - just a little mayo or lemon aioli, maybe a bit of lettuce.

    It’s packed with delicate flavours, and too much in the way of topping - even just onion slices - will overpower it.

    Spinach Feta Salmon Burgers

    A highly customizable recipe for a delicious salmon burger!

    Course: Main Course
    Cuisine: American, Mediterranean
    Servings: 4

    Author: Marie Porter

    Ingredients

    • 1 lb Fresh, raw salmon Skin removed
    • 1-2 Cups Fresh Spinach Chopped
    • ¼ Cup Fresh DIll Chopped
    • 1 Green Onion Sliced
    • 1 Lemon, Zest Of
    • ⅔ Cup Shredded Feta Cheese
    • ⅔ Cup Panko Crumbs Gluten-Free, if needed
    • ½ teaspoon Ground Pepper
    • Olive Oil or Pan Spray
    • 4 Large Buns

    Instructions

    • Chop salmon into chunks – about 1″ or so – and blitz a couple times in a food processor. You want there to be some small chunks, not just a super smooth mush. Place in a medium-large mixing bowl.
    • Measure spinach, dill, and green onion into the food processor. Blitz until finely chopped, add to mixing bowl, along with remaining ingredients. Mix gently until thoroughly combined.
    • Divide mixture into 4 equal mounds, shape into burgers.
    • Heat nonstick pan, spray or coat with a small amount of olive oil. Cook over medium heat for a few minutes, until it looks to be cooked halfway up. Gently flip – I like to use 2 large spatulas – and cook for a few more minutes, until cooked all the way through and lightly browned.
    • Serve hot, on buns.
