Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh salmon filet, skin removed and cut into chunks
  • 1/2 of a medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or olive oil
  • 2 avocados, pitted and diced
  • 1/2 cup diced fresh mango
  • 1 jalapeño, seeds and ribs removed, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
  • juice of 1 lime (or two if it's small)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, plus extra for topping

Instructions

  1. Make the salsa. Combine avocado, mango, jalapeño, red onion, lime juice, cilantro, and a couple pinches of salt in a medium bowl. Toss to combine. Set aside while you make the burgers.

  2. Put the salmon in the food processor and pulse until ground, but not so ground that it becomes a paste. Add salmon to a medium bowl. Add the egg, panko, chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the salmon and mix until combined. Once combined, form into 4 patties.

  3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the avocado oil/olive oil. Add the burgers and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Serve with the avocado mango salsa and extra chopped cilantro!
