Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts on a chopping board in front of you and carefully slice each breast in half, creating two thin cutlets.
- Place the chicken in a dish or large bowl suitable for marinating.
- To make the marinade, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, herbs, chilli flakes/red pepper flakes, salt and black pepper.
- Pour the marinade over the chicken and mix, making sure each piece of chicken is completely coated.
- Cover with plastic wrap and allow to marinade for at least 30 minutes but up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
- Heat an outdoor grill or grill pan over medium high heat. You can use a large skillet on a stovetop too, if preferred.
- Add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes per side (depending on the thickness of the chicken) until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
- Remove from the heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- To assemble the burgers, toast the hamburger buns then top with spicy mayonnaise, lettuce leaves, the grilled chicken and any burger toppings of your choice.
- Serve immediately.
