Ingredients

4 servings

For the patties

1.5 lb fresh salmon fillet, skin removed, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 tbsp garlic-infused olive oil, divided
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
½ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp ground turmeric
3 tbsp olive oil, for cooking

For the lemon-herb sauce

¼ cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
3 tbsp garlic-infused olive oil
¼ tsp sea salt

For serving

8 large butter lettuce leaves, for wrapping
1 lemon, cut into wedges (optional)
1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Make the lemon-herb sauce: whisk together the parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic-infused olive oil, and sea salt in a small bowl until combined. Set aside.
2
Place about two-thirds of the salmon chunks in a food processor and pulse 6–8 times until coarsely chopped — the mixture should hold together when pressed but still have visible texture, not a smooth paste. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
