MacKnight Salmon Burgers

"When burgers are on the tailgate menu, a salmon burger option can be a simple and delicious choice."

Total recipe time: 30 to 40 minutes Makes: 4 servings

 

8 vacuum packed, quick-frozen salmon burgers

8 whole-wheat buns of choice

8 lettuce leaves

Lemony-Dill Sauce

 

For the Lemony-Dill Sauce:

1/2 cup sour cream

1/3 cup mayonnaise

1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill weed

1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon finely chopped shallot

1/2 teaspoon honey

Salt and pepper to taste

Additional dill weed for garnish, if desired

Prepare the MacKnight Salmon Burgers per directions on the packaging.

While the salmon burgers are cooking, prepare the Lemony-Dill Sauce. In a medium-sized bowl, combine all the ingredients, and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

To serve, place a lettuce leaf on the bottom of each bun, and top with salmon burger and dill sauce. Garnish with additional dill weed, if desired.

Note: When planning a tailgate, make the dill sauce the day before, and transport in a cooler along with prepped lettuce leaves.
