A food processor makes quick work of this hearty seafood dish.

Fish is a great source of protein post-workout and salmon is rich in Omega-3s and vitamin B. Instead of baking it, try this creative spin from chef Ashton Keefe. "Few people realize how easy it is to grind and make burgers or meatballs from salmon," she says.

Ingredients

½ pound

salmon, skin off and cut into 1-inch cubes

¼ cup

parsley leaves

1 tablespoon

Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon

capers

Kosher salt

Extra-virgin olive oil

1 cup

sugar snap peas, trimmed and cut at a roughly 45-degree angle

1 bunch

scallions

lemon wedge, juiced

Directions

Step 1

Pulse salmon, parsley, mustard, capers, and salt in a food processor. Divide and shape into four patties.

Step 2

In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook salmon patties two to three minutes per side, until golden brown.

Step 3

In a bowl, toss sugar snap peas with chives and juice from lemon, season with salt. Serve with salmon burgers. Optional: add a whole grain bun or side of quinoa.
