Provided by Nick Perkins

Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 21

Lemon-Caper Aioli:
1/4 cup rinsed salt-packed capers
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons (or more) fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
Kosher salt
Lamb burgers and assembly:
1 1/2 pounds ground lamb, preferably grass-fed
Kosher salt
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 celery stalks, thinly sliced on the diagonal
1/2 fennel bulb, thinly sliced; plus 1/4 cup chopped fennel fronds (optional)
1/4 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons crushed dried mint
Freshly ground black pepper
4 potato or ciabatta rolls, toasted
Boquerones (marinated white anchovies; for serving)

Steps:

  • Lemon-Caper Aioli:
  • Place capers in a small bowl and pour in warm water to cover. Let soak 20 minutes. Drain, rinse, and pat dry. Coarsely chop.
  • Whisk capers, mayonnaise, oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, and garlic in a medium bowl; taste and season with salt and more lemon juice, if desired.
  • Assembly:
  • Shape lamb into 4 patties about 1" thick, season with salt, and let sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
  • Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet, ideally cast iron, over medium. Cook lamb patties, working in batches if needed, until browned (they won't take on as much color as a beef burger), 5-7 minutes. Turn and cook until browned on second side, about 5 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer patties to a plate and let rest 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss celery, fennel, fennel fronds (if using), onion, lemon juice, dried mint, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl. Season slaw with salt and pepper.
  • Generously spread aioli on cut sides of buns and build each burger with a lamb patty, 3 or 4 boquerones, and a mound of slaw. This is a messy burger, so the bib is not optional.
  • Do Ahead
  • Aioli can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. Use fresh or frozen salmon fillets that are free of skin and bones. If using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Make sure the salmon is cooked through. The internal temperature of the salmon should reach 145°F (63°C) before serving.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 8-10 minutes per side.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise. The mayonnaise is the base of the lemon caper aioli, so make sure to use a good quality brand that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Make the lemon caper aioli ahead of time. The aioli can be made up to 3 days in advance. Just store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to use it.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in the kale slaw. The kale slaw is a great way to add some extra vegetables to your meal. Use a variety of vegetables that you enjoy, such as kale, cabbage, carrots, and red onion.
  • Dress the kale slaw just before serving. The kale slaw is best served fresh, so dress it just before you're ready to eat it.
