Ingredients: 1 lb fresh salmon, skinless and deboned. 1/2 cup breadcrumbs. 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. 1 teaspoon paprika. 1 teaspoon cumin. 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Salt and pepper to taste. 1 egg, beaten. 4 whole grain burger buns. Lettuce, tomato, and red onion slices for garnish.
Instructions: Chop the salmon into small pieces and place in a food processor. Pulse the salmon until finely ground, but not pureed. In a large bowl, combine the ground salmon, breadcrumbs, red onion, garlic, Dijon mustard, paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix in the beaten egg until the mixture holds together. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Toast the burger buns on the grill for a minute or until they are lightly golden. Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun and topping with lettuce, tomato, and red onion slices. Serve the spiced salmon burgers hot, and enjoy the flavorful goodness!
