Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 g Raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 120 g Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 stalks Green onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 large Egg, lightly beaten
- 30 g Mayonnaise
- 15 ml Lemon juice
- 5 g Paprika
- 3 g Salt
- 2 g Black pepper
- 30 ml Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 4 Burger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 4 slices Sliced tomatoes
- Optional burger condiments (ketchup, more mayonnaise, etc.)
Instructions
Roughly chop half of the shrimp and place the other half in a food processor. Blend the shrimp in the food processor until it forms a paste.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shrimp paste, chopped shrimp, panko breadcrumbs, green onion, minced garlic, beaten egg, mayonnaise, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty, about the size of your burger buns. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the shrimp patties to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
Toast the burger buns lightly in the same skillet or in a toaster if desired.
To assemble, place a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a shrimp patty on top, followed by any optional condiments of your choice (mayonnaise, ketchup, etc.). Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve the shrimp burgers immediately and enjoy!
