Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams skinless white fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 75 grams panko breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 stalks green onion (finely chopped)
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 burger buns
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 sliced tomato
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise (optional)
Instructions
Place the white fish fillets in a food processor and pulse until coarsely minced. Be careful not to over-process; the fish should have some texture.
In a mixing bowl, combine the minced fish, panko breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, dill, green onion, minced garlic, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the fish patties and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns if desired.
To assemble the burgers, spread mayonnaise (if using) on the bottom bun, then add a lettuce leaf, a fish patty, a slice of tomato, and the top bun. Repeat for the remaining patties.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh herb-packed fish burgers!
