Grilled Shrimp Burgers

These are probably the healthiest burgers I've ever made ... and surprisingly simple and tasty! My inspiration was the Shrimp Boulette Po' Boy Burger from the Burger Meister cookbook but I made numerous changes to suit hubby's taste. I will definitely make these again to help use up extra burger buns.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Yields: 8 burgers

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup  minced onion
• 2  teaspoons  minced garlic
• 1  teaspoon  celery salt
• 1⁄2-1  teaspoon  chili paste
• 1 1⁄2 lbs  uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2  teaspoons dried chives
• 2  teaspoons dried parsley
• 1  teaspoon dried basil
• 1  teaspoon dried thyme
•  salt
•  white pepper

Directions

1. Chop shrimp finely using a food processor (I used my Pampered Chef food chopper) or grind with a meat grinder using a coarse grinding plate.
2. Gently but thoroughly mix shrimp with remaining ingredients.
3. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. NOTE: I eliminated the salt due to the use of celery salt.
5. Gently form mixture into six to eight 3/4-inch-thick burgers.
6. Cover the burgers and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until needed.
7. Grill burgers 5 to 6 minutes on each side, basting with approximately 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce per burger while grilling.
8. Serve with whatever you like to dress your shrimp with.
9. We used a homemade tartar sauce but I would also consider cocktail sauce or barbecue sauce as well as lettuce and tomato.
