MacKnight Salmon Burgers with Lemony-Dill Sauce

"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.
