One Lean serving

4 Salmon fillets (7 ounces each)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill

1/4 teaspoon pepper or to taste

1/4 cup low fat plain Greek yogurt

Wasabi Salmon Burgers

3 servings

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes


Ingredients:

2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon wasabi powder
1 packet Splenda or Stevia
1.25 lbs salmon fillet, skinned
2 scallions, finely chopped
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons fresh minced ginger
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Directions:

Whisk soy sauce, wasabi powder and honey in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.

With a large chef's knife, chop salmon using quick, even, straight-up-and-down motions (do not rock the knife through the fish or it will turn mushy). Continue chopping, rotating the knife, until you have a mass of roughly 1/4-inch pieces. Transfer to a large bowl. Add scallions, egg, ginger and oil; stir to combine. Form the mixture into 4 patties. The mixture will be moist and loose, but holds together nicely once the first side is cooked. 

Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the patties and cook for 4 minutes. Turn and continue to cook until firm and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Spoon the reserved wasabi glaze evenly over the burgers and cook for 15 seconds more. Serve immediately.

Ingredient Note:  Wasabi powder, when mixed with water, becomes the green paste most of us know from sushi restaurants. The powder is available in jars in the Asian aisle of most supermarkets or in almost all Asian markets. Store at room temperature for up to 1 year. 

Set the patties atop a vinegary salad of greens, red pepper, radishes and sprouts.
