- 2 stalks green onion (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned salmon, panko breadcrumbs, egg, green onion, parsley, Dijon mustard, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the salmon patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In a small bowl, prepare the yogurt herb sauce by combining the Greek yogurt, dill, lemon juice, minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Toast the burger buns lightly in a skillet or toaster, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by spreading a generous amount of yogurt herb sauce on the bottom bun, followed by a lettuce leaf, a salmon patty, a slice or two of tomato, and some red onion slices. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Salmon Patties Burgers with a Yogurt Herb Sauce!
