1. Chop the fresh salmon fillet into small pieces and add it to a food processor. Pulse until finely minced but not completely pureed.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced salmon, gluten-free breadcrumbs, egg, finely chopped red onion, parsley, dill, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the ingredients are evenly combined.
3. Divide the salmon mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty, approximately 2 cm thick. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to help them firm up.
4. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon patties in the skillet.
5. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they form a golden crust and are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 63°C or 145°F).
6. Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for 2 minutes.
7. Assemble the salmon burgers using gluten-free buns and your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, sliced tomatoes, avocado, or gluten-free mayonnaise.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
