Ingredients

 8 oz salmon fillets(skinless, cut into 1/2-inch chunks)
 ¼ cup cilantro(finely chopped)
 1 tbsp ginger(peeled and finely grated)
 1 tsp sesame oil
 1 tsp lime juice
 1 tbsp avocado oil

Directions

1

Add the salmon to the bowl of a food processor (including the blade) and place in the freezer for 15 minutes.

2

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl combine the cilantro, ginger, coconut aminos, sesame oil and lime juice. Set aside.

3

Remove the food processor bowl from the freezer. Pulse the salmon 4 to 5 times until finely chopped but not pureed. Fold the chopped salmon into the cilantro and ginger mixture.

4

Form the mixture into patties. If it is too wet, refrigerate for 20 minutes to stiffen before forming into patties.

5

Heat the avocado oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon burgers for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and firm to the touch. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Ginger-Cilantro Salmon Burgers
I am a Nurse, wife, and mom. I have spent over 20 years in Healthcare and always took care of everyone else. Finally, after years of yo-yo dieting and failed New Years' resolutions, and complete desperation, I found something that Finally worked for me. I have been doing this Keto/Low carb lifestyle for over 3 years and have lost over 100lbs. My goal was to bring this lifestyle to my family and we went from couch potatoes to our 1st 5k and have lost over 300 lbs. We still have a long way to reach our goals, but we strive to be better every day. I enjoy helping women bring this Keto/Low carb lifestyle to the family.
