    Servings and Ingredients

    Ingredients
    Serves 4
    QuantityIngredientAdd
    ½ c. Hy-Vee light sour cream
    1 Hy-Vee kosher baby dill pickle, finely chopped
    1 tbsp. chopped fresh dill
    1 tsp. Hy-Vee lemon juice
    ½ medium red onion, thinly sliced
    ½ c. lime juice
    Pinch kosher salt
    1 lbs. skinless boneless salmon fillets
    1 Hy-Vee large egg, lightly beaten
    ¾ c. Hy-Vee panko bread crumbs
    ¼ c. thinly sliced green onions
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 tbsp. Hy-Vee light soy sauce
    1 tsp. Hy-Vee Select balsamic vinegar
    ½ tsp. freshly ground Hy-Vee black pepper
    ¼ tsp. kosher salt
    1 tbsp. Hy-Vee Select olive oil
    8 slice(s) Hy-Vee bacon, cooked and drained
    8 (1/2-inch-thick) crosswise-cut slices Hy-Vee Baking Stone French bread
    Baby arugula leaves, for serving

    Directions

    1. Combine sour cream, chopped pickles, chopped dill and lemon juice in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
    2. Toss together onions and lime juice in a shallow bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt. Let stand at room temperature for about an hour.
    3. Meanwhile, cut salmon into 1-inch chunks. Place in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse just until coarsely ground (do not over-process); set aside.
    4. In a large bowl, combine egg, panko, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, pepper and kosher salt. Stir in salmon. With damp hands, shape into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 8 hours. Brush patties with olive oil.
    5. For a charcoal grill, grill patties on a greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 8 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees, turning once halfway through grilling. Toast bread slices on the grill. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place patties, then bread slices, on grill rack over heat. Cover; grill as directed.)
    6. To serve, line each bottom slice of bread with arugula and 2 slices bacon. Add burgers and top with dill sauce and remaining slices of grilled bread.
