Sassy Salmon Burgers

Crisp on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside, tuck these salmon burgers inside a soft roll with mayo, a squeeze of lemon and a lettuce leaf.

Recipe Ingredients:

2 (14.75-ounce) cans salmon, drained and flaked
1 1/2 cups bread crumbs - divided use
3 large eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons crushed dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 soft rolls, split and toasted
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 lemon, juiced
4 lettuce leaves

Cooking Directions:

1. Combine salmon, 1/4 cup bread crumbs, beaten eggs, parsley, salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix well and form into 4 large patties. Dredge until evenly coated in remaining bread crumbs.
2. Heat oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp. Adjust heat as needed to brown evenly.
3. Spread mayonnaise on bottom halves of rolls. Top with salmon patties. Sprinkle with lemon juice and top with lettuce leaves and cover with top halves. Serve immediately.
