Ingredients

  • FOR THE BURGERS:
  • ½ pounds Shrimp, Peeled, Deveined & Tails Removed
  • ½ cups Bread Crumbs
  • 1 whole Egg
  • ½ teaspoons Seasoned Salt
  • 2 Tablespoons Oil Or Butter, For Skillet
  • 2  Buns Or Bread Slices For Serving
  • FOR THE GREENS:
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Thinly Sliced
  • 4 cups Chopped Dark Greens Such As Chard Or Kale
  • 1 teaspoon Soy Sauce
  • Lemon Wedges For Serving

Preparation

Pulse 2/3 of the shrimp, the breadcrumbs, the egg, and seasoned salt in a food processor to form a thick paste. Coarsely chop the rest of the shrimp. Combine the shrimp mixture with the chopped shrimp. If the mixture is very wet, sprinkle in a little more breadcrumbs at a time to thicken the mixture to the consistency of thick porridge.

Form 2 patties with the shrimp mixture and place on a plate. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to help the burgers stay firm.

When ready to cook, heat a thin layer of oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and let them cook until crispy on each side, about 7 minutes per side.

For the greens, heat the butter and garlic in a skillet over medium heat. When the butter foams and the garlic is fragrant but not browned, add the greens and soy sauce. Toss for 3 minutes to wilt the greens, then serve over the shrimp burgers with lemon wedges. Enjoy!
