Ingredients
- 16 oz shrimp peeled
- ½ cup bread crumbs
- ½ cup red bell pepper chopped
- ½ cup red onion chopped + more for topping
- 3 tablespoon green onion + more for topping
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 egg

Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise and horseradish sauce. Add the pickle juice. Stir in one tablespoon of lemon juice. Chill until ready to serve.
- Using a food processor, finely chop the shrimp, red onion, red bell pepper, green onions, and garlic. Then add the Old Bay seasoning and one tablespoon of lemon juice. Pulse well to combine and remove any large chunks.

- Serve the shrimp burgers on burger buns and top with avocado, tomatoes, radicchio, and of course, the horseradish tartar sauce. Serve hot and enjoy!
