Salmon Burgers with Strawberry Salsa
Serves 4.
Who says burgers are just about the beef? These salmon burgers are sure to become a summer favourite for the grill, while the strawberry-infused salsa will guarantee that nobody will miss the bun.
For a grill-free option, you can pan-sear the salmon burgers on the stovetop. If you are avoiding wheat or gluten, you can replace bread crumbs with pulverized gluten-free crackers.
