✔️ Salmon Burger Sauce
A creamy sauce over a nice, golden brown burger, whether is a fish, beef burger or turkey burgers adds richness to the sandwich, additional flavor and sometimes a little heat. There are many options to choose from which makes it impossible to declare just one sauce as “the best sauce”. Some favorites are:
- Tartar Sauce – a classic option for all things fish!
- Lemon Dill Sauce – made with mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest and fresh dill, capers and garlic.
- Lime Crema – Fresh lime juice, sour cream (or Mexican crema), chopped cilantro and lime zest give this sauce a tangy flavor. You can use fresh parsley if preferred.
- Spicy Mayo or Chipotle Mayo – If you are a fan of spicy foods and hot sauce, this is a must!
- Basil Pesto – You can whip up a batch of homemade pesto or purchase pesto at a grocery store.
- Old Bay Sauce – This sauce is so quick and easy to make that I often make it while the burgers are cooking on the hot grill! In a small bowl combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, old bay seasoning, garlic powder, green onions and lemon juice.
- Teriyaki Sauce – Sweet teriyaki compliments the fish so well.
