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.

CRISPY SHRIMP BURGERS

Steps:

• Take half the shrimp and coarsely chop it. Add it to a bowl. Take the other half and add it to a food processor with the garlic and cilantro. Pulse to create a chunky paste. Mix in with the chopped shrimp.
• Add the salt, paprika, onion powder, cayenne pepper, Panko breadcrumbs, and egg. Mix until just combine.
• Divide into patties.
• Heat a skillet over medium high heat with the vegetable oil. Add the burgers and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side. Serve on a roll as a burger, wrapped in lettuce, or as a burger bowl.

SHRIMP BURGER

Steps:

• Saute the celery, carrots, onions, herbs, garlic, bay leaf, paprika and salt, pepper and sugar to taste (this is called a sofrito) in a medium saute pan, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the pan and cool until ready to use.
• Pulse the shrimp in a food processor, leaving some larger shrimp pieces. Mix with the sofrito and sprinkle with salt.
• Form the shrimp mixture into 4 to 6 burger patties. Sprinkle both sides of the burgers with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large saute pan with the butter over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Pull the burgers from the pan and toast the buns in the butter (you may need to add a little more butter at this step, depending on how much is left in the pan).
• To serve, top the burger with Aioli and Cabbage-Apple Slaw.
• Place the egg yolks, lemon juice and hot sauce in a food processor and pulse to combine.
• While the food processor is running, slowly add the oil to form an emulsion. Once the egg yolks and oil have emulsified, thin out with water (about 1/4 cup) and season with salt and pepper. Fold in the herbs. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
• Mix together the cabbage and apples in a large bowl and season with salt.
• Combine the lemon juice, olive oil and thyme in a small bowl. Season with salt, pepper and sugar. Mix the slaw with the dressing.

SHRIMP BURGER

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high (about 375 degrees F). In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, add 2/3 of the shrimp.
• Add the garlic, paprika, mustard, salt, seafood seasoning, and cayenne. Pulse a few times to begin to incorporate. Add 1/2 of the green onion and 1/2 of the bell pepper. Puree until fairly smooth, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Finely chop the remaining shrimp, bell pepper, and green onion (you want the shrimp to bind with the burgers but still be a little chunky so that the burgers have texture). Add to the bowl and stir until evenly combined.
• Shape mixture into 6 patties that are about ¾-inch thick and 3 1/2 to 4 inches in diameter. Place in the refrigerator and chill for 15 minutes.
• Make sure your grill is very clean. Brush the outsides of the shrimp patties with oil. Place on the grill (clean it one more time for good measure-any debris can make the patties stick), close the lid, then cook on the first side without disturbing for 4 to 5 minutes, until the patties release easily. Flip and cook on the other side until the patties are cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes more.
• If desired, in the last few minutes of cooking, place the buns on the grill, cut side down, and lightly toast.
• Serve the shrimp burgers on the toasted buns, topped with Greek yogurt, mustard, lettuce, tomato, and avocado as desired. Enjoy!
