Method

To make the green goddess sauce

1. Add all ingredients to the food processor and blend until combined. Set aside in the refrigerator for the flavors to develop.

To make the patties

1. Cut your salmon filet into several smaller pieces and add it to your food processor. Pulse until it is in smaller pieces but not completely ground. Remove the salmon and place it in a large bowl. Add the shallot, garlic, egg, bread crumbs, paprika, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and fresh herbs to the bowl. Stir with a large wooden spoon or spatula to combine, then bring the mixture together with your hands.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the burgers and cook on both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. To ensure that the middle is cooked to opaque, turn the heat to low, cover the skillet and cook for another minute or two.

To assemble the burgers

1. Add the salmon patty, goat cheese, avocado, sprouts, greens, and goddess sauce to the toasted buns. Serve and enjoy!
