  • Place panko in a shallow bowl. Coat patties evenly with panko, making sure to cover all sides. Place burgers on a baking sheet and chill in the fridge.
  • Meanwhile, make tartar sauce. Combine chopped eggs, mayonnaise, chopped onion, cornichons, dill, lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Set aside.

  • Season shredded cabbage with olive oil, lemon, and salt, tossing to combine. Set aside.
  • Heat enough oil in a large saute pan to cover the bottom of the pan over medium heat. Cook the shrimp patties until golden brown on both sides, about 5-6 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Assemble burgers. Smear bottom brioche bun with honey mustard aioli and top with cabbage, shrimp patty, tartar sauce, and remaining bun. Serve immediately.
