Ingredients:

  • For the Avocado Ranch:
  • 1 medium Del Monte® Avocado, pitted and scooped from the shell
  • ½ cup cilantro leaves and stems, chopped
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp. lime juice from Del Monte® Limes
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • ½ tsp. fine sea salt
  • For the Salmon Burgers:
  • 1½ lbs. salmon, bones and skin removed, divided
  • ½ cup dry breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1 tsp. fine sea salt
  • ¼ tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 2 jalapeños, seeded and chopped
  • ½ cup cilantro, chopped
  • 4 green onions, chopped
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 4 hamburger buns, lightly toasted
  • 8 butter lettuce leaves

Instructions:

In a blender combine avocado, cilantro, buttermilk, lime juice, garlic, and salt. Blend until completely smooth. If needed, add a little more buttermilk to obtain a thick but pourable consistency. Set aside.

In a food processor combine about ¼ of the salmon, breadcrumbs, cumin, oregano, salt, and cayenne. Process until mixture forms a smooth paste. Add remaining salmon, jalapeños, cilantro, and green onion. Pulse until salmon and vegetables are finely chopped but not a paste.

Form salmon mixture into 4 patties.

In a large nonstick skillet heat oil over medium heat. Add burgers and cook, flipping once, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes (internal temperature should reach 145℉).

Serve burgers on buns, topped with avocado ranch and lettuce.
