Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by peeling and deveining 1 pound of raw shrimp. Divide them into two portions: set aside 1/3 of the shrimp, finely chopping them for added texture later.
- In the meantime, mince 2 garlic cloves, dice 1 red bell pepper, chop a handful of fresh parsley, zest 1 lemon, and slice green onions.
- In a food processor, blend the reserved 2/3 of the shrimp with the minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of paprika, 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, 1 tablespoon of seafood seasoning, and a pinch of cayenne pepper until smooth.
- Transfer the shrimp mixture into a large bowl. Gently fold in the finely chopped shrimp, the remaining bell pepper, green onion whites, lemon zest, parsley, and 1/2 cup of panko breadcrumbs until everything is evenly distributed.
- Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat your grill to 375°F. Lightly brush each patty with canola oil to prevent sticking. Grill the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through.
- While the patties are grilling, brush the cut sides of 6 brioche buns with butter. Place them on the grill for 1-2 minutes toasting until golden brown.
- Spread a generous layer of a creamy yogurt-mustard sauce on each toasted bun. Add a grilled shrimp patty on top, followed by layers of crisp butter lettuce, tomato slices, and optional avocado.

Notes
Refrigerate patties for at least 15 minutes to firm up and avoid falling apart on the grill. Use a meat thermometer to ensure patties are cooked to 165°F.
