Recipe Instructions:
-
Prepare Basting and Spread: Begin by combining Dijon mustard, onion, lemon juice, garlic, fresh ground black pepper, salt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, low-fat sour cream, and cayenne. This mixture will serve as both a basting sauce for the salmon and a spread for the buns.
-
Shape Salmon Patties: In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine the salmon fillet with the prepared ingredients to form a flavorful burger mixture. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties, ensuring they are approximately 1/2 inch thick and 4 inches in diameter.
-
Preheat the Grill: Heat your barbecue grill until the coals glow red with white ash around the edges. This ensures optimal cooking conditions for the salmon burgers.
-
Grill Salmon Patties: As salmon patties can be delicate, handle them with care. For added stability, chill the patties on a plate in the refrigerator before grilling. Once prepared, place the patties on the preheated grill, ensuring they are at least 2 inches apart.
-
Baste and Cook: Grill the salmon patties for approximately 2 minutes on each side or until nicely marked. While grilling, baste the patties with the prepared Lemon Sour Cream Butter to infuse them with irresistible flavor. Continue cooking until the burgers are just cooked through, approximately 2 minutes longer.
-
Toast Lemon Dill Buns: Split the lemon dill buns and lightly butter them with Lemon Sour Cream Butter, if desired. Toast the buns on the grill until they are golden brown and fragrant, adding an extra layer of texture and flavor to your burgers.
-
Assemble and Serve: Once the salmon patties are cooked to perfection, assemble your burgers by spreading mayonnaise or tartar sauce onto the toasted buns. Place the grilled salmon patties between the buns and serve immediately, savoring every mouthwatering bite of these Barbecued Salmon Burgers on Lemon Dill Buns.
Embrace the tantalizing combination of savory salmon, zesty lemon, and aromatic dill in every bite, creating a culinary masterpiece that will delight your taste buds and leave you craving more. Whether enjoyed as a quick weeknight meal or showcased at your next barbecue gathering, these salmon burgers are sure to impress!
