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 BURGERS WITH OLD BAY MAYO

Steps:

• For the shrimp burgers: Coarsely chop half of the shrimp. Put the remaining shrimp in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Combine both shrimp in a large bowl with the breadcrumbs, lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, pepper, scallions and egg and mix. Refrigerate for 10 minutes, and then form into 4 patties. Refrigerate 10 more minutes.
• Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers, about 3 minutes per side.
• For the Old Bay mayo: Combine the mayonnaise and Old Bay to taste in a small bowl.
• To serve, spread the buns with the mayo and place the burgers on the buns. Top the burgers with the avocado slices, lettuce leaves and tomato slices.

GRILLED SEAFOOD BURGERS WITH OLD BAY MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium and oil the grates.
• In a food processor, pulse the shrimp a few times just until finely chopped and a coarse paste forms. Transfer to a large bowl and add the cod, 1/4 cup of the scallions, the salt and pepper, and mix until well blended. (Hands work best.) Moisten your hands with water, then form the mixture into 4 (½-inch-thick) patties. Coat patties lightly with the oil.
• Grill the burgers until lightly charred and just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. (Resist the temptation to prod or flip the burgers unnecessarily. They will release easily once they are cooked on each side.)
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Old Bay and the remaining 2 tablespoons scallions; mix well.
• Smear some of the Old Bay mayonnaise on the buns. Top each bottom bun with a burger and squeeze lemon on top. Top with some of the lettuce and pickles, close the burgers and enjoy.

SHRIMP BURGERS

Steps:

• Start a charcoal or gas grill; fire should be moderately hot and rack about 4 inches from heat source.
• Combine garlic, chili, ginger and 1/3 of the shrimp in a food processor and purée, stopping machine to scrape down sides of container as necessary. Add remaining shrimp along with shallots, bell pepper, salt, pepper and cilantro, and pulse as many times as necessary to chop shrimp, but not too finely. Shape mixture into 4 patties. Chill for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Brush grill or patties lightly with oil and place them on grill. Cook undisturbed until a dark crust appears on bottom and they release fairly easily with a spatula, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes on the other side. Serve on buns or not, as you like, with ketchup or lime juice as a condiment.
