Shrimp Cod Burgers With Tarragon Tartar Sauce Recipes

SHRIMP BURGERS WITH AVOCADO TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the tartar sauce: With the motor running, drop the shallot and garlic through the food chute of a food processor until minced. Remove the lid and add the avocado, lime zest, lime juice, capers, parsley, mayonnaise, Dijon and seasoning salt. Pulse until combined. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the burgers: Wash and dry the food processor bowl and blade. Add the shrimp and cilantro to the food processor. Pulse until combined. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Combine the eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon and seafood seasoning in a small bowl. Add to the shrimp mixture and stir gently to combine. Fold in the crackers. Shape the mixture into 8 patties.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add some canola oil. Add the patties and brown until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
• To serve, spread the tartar sauce on the rolls. Top with the patties, lettuce, onion, tomatoes and roll tops.

SHRIMP AND COD BURGERS

Steps:

• Process half of the shrimp in a food processor until a paste forms. Add the cod, remaining shrimp, and the bread crumbs, capers, scallions, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Pulse until just combined (do not overprocess).
• Using dampened hands, shape into 4 patties. Refrigerate, covered, until cold and firm, about 1 1/2 hours (or overnight).
• Preheat the grill to medium-high (if using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds). Brush the grill and the burgers with oil. Grill, flipping once, until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Toast the buns on the grill during the last minute of cooking, if desired. Serve the burgers on the buns; top with lettuce. Serve with tartar sauce, if desired, and the lemon wedges.
• Tarragon Tartar Sauce
