Salmon is loaded with omega 3′s – a healthy fat most of us don’t get enough of. My family has been making an effort to eat healthy fats and more fish in general. But, I’ll just tell you – salmon was not my favorite. Being a gal who has grown up on white fish and mostly very mild flavored tilapia, salmon was a bit more fishy tasting to me. I had tried cooking salmon filets and had experimented with different marinades but each time while my husband liked it, it was just tolerable to me.
Then, I found Wild Planet’s sustainably caught wild Alaska pink salmon. Wild Planet’s salmon is 100% sustainable and has been since 2004. This canned salmon is so good…especially in my Salmon Burger recipe. If you aren’t sure if you like salmon just yet, but you know it is good for you, I strongly suggest you try my recipe! Even my two kiddos love them, especially when I make them small for “salmon sliders.”
:: Salmon Burgers
2 {6 oz} cans of Wild Planet Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon
1/4 cup cornmeal {preferably organic or GMO free}
1 egg
coconut oil
Buns and toppings
Mix together the salmon, cornmeal, and egg. Prepare a griddle or cast iron skillet with a bit of coconut oil – just enough to coat the pan. Using a spoon and your hands form 4 large {regular bun size} or 7 small {slider size} salmon burgers. Place on the griddle or in the hot pan. Cook until done on first side and then flip to cook the second side.
Once the salmon patties are all cooked through, serve with warm buns and your favorite toppings. My kiddos like ketchup, I like mayo, lettuce, tomato, onion, and my hubs likes BBQ sauce! Get creative…slices of avocado would also be good along with other fun gourmet condiments.
