Shrimp Burgers
These mouthwatering burgers are made with fresh shrimp and packed with a medley of herbs and spices. They are not only easy to make but also incredibly satisfying.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large egg, beaten
- Olive oil, for frying
- Hamburger buns and toppings (lettuce, tomato, avocado, etc.)
Instructions:
- Begin by finely chopping the shrimp. You can pulse it in a food processor for a few seconds to achieve a coarse mixture, but be careful not to over-process.
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, breadcrumbs, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, pepper, and beaten egg. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
- Form the mixture into patties, about 1-inch thick. This recipe should yield about 4-5 patties.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp patties, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- While the patties are cooking, lightly toast your hamburger buns on a separate skillet or in a toaster.
- Once the shrimp burgers are cooked, assemble them on the toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, and avocado for that extra flair.
- Serve immediately and enjoy these delightful shrimp burgers with friends and family!
These Shrimp Burgers are not only tasty but can also be customized with additional toppings or sides. Whether you pair them with a fresh salad or enjoy them on their own, they’re sure to impress!
