Total Time: 19 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 4 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 2
• 1 lb boneless skinless salmon fillet, well-chopped
• 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon minced onion
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced or pressed
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

• lemon dill hot dog bun
• mayonnaise or homemade tartar sauce
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/4 cup low-fat sour cream
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne

Recipe

• 1 combine and use to baste salmon then spread on buns, thin coating.
• 2 to make the burger mixture, thoroughly combine the burger ingredients in a medium bowl.
• 3 divide into 4 portions, shape into patties 1/2 inch thick and 4 inches in diameter.
• 4 heat the barbecue grill until the coals glow red with ash around the edge.
• 5 the salmon patties are fragile, so handle them carefully; if you chill the patties on a plate in the refrigerator before putting them on the grill, they will hold together better.
• 6 when the barbecue is heated, put the salmon patties on the grill at least 2 inches apart.
• 7 grill until the first side is nicely marked, about 2 minutes, then turn and baste with lemon sour cream butter.
• 8 continue cooking until the burgers are just cooked through, about 2 minutes longer.
• 9 split the buns and, if desired, butter lightly with lemon sour cream butter and toast them on the grill.
• 10 spread the buns with mayonnaise or tartar sauce if using, add the burgers.
