Instructions 

  1. Make herb sauce by mixing together Greek yogurt, mayo, lemon juice, dill, parsley, capers, salt and pepper. Place in the fridge while making your burgers.
  2. Make burgers by adding salmon, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, scallions, dijon mustard, lemon juice, parsley, salt and pepper to a medium mixing bowl. Mix together until combined.Salmon, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, scallions, dijon mustard, lemon juice, parsley, salt and pepper in a medium mixing bowl.
  3. Form the mixture into 4 patties using your hands. I used a wide-mouthed mason jar lid to help form the patties.Four salmon burger patties shaped on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
  4. Coat a large nonstick skillet or cast iron with oil. Turn heat to medium and allow the pan to heat up for about 1 minute. Add the patties and cook for about 4 minutes each side. Be careful when flipping the burgers! Salmon burgers are delicate and can break easily.Two salmon burgers cooking in a cast iron skillet.
