Instructions
- Preheat the oven or grill to 375 degrees. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and spray olive over it. Keep aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl add all the ingredients for burger patties and mix well.
- Flatten the mix in the bowl and then make 2 cross slits in the middle to divide the mix into 4 quarters.
- Use a spoon or spatula shape each quarter into a round ball and drop it on the lined tray, 3 to 4 inches apart from each other Shape into a round circle with a spoon and then gently press the meat into a flat 3 to 4-inch patty. Press the middle of the patty with your thumb or back of a spoon, this will allow the patty surface to cook flat and not puff up.
- Lightly spray over the burgers and cook in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. No need to turn halfway over.
To cook on grill:
- Preheat the grill at 375 degrees. Line the grill with aluminuim foil and spray oil over.
- Place the ground chicken mix on the foil with 3 to 4-inch space around each patty. Shape into a round circle with a spoon and then gently press the meat into a flat 3 to 4-inch patty. Press the middle of the patty with your thumb or back of a spoon. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes and then flip over and cook the other side for an additional 8 to 10 minutes.
Sriracha Mayo
- To make quick homemade sriracha mayo, simply stir together mayonnaise and sriracha sauce. Add more or less sriracha depending on the level of spice you like. I usually do half mayo and half sriracha for a spicy creamy sauce.
Serving
- Lightly toast the burger buns on a preheated cast iron griddle, optionally drizzling some olive oil on the cut side for extra flavor.
- Start with a crisp lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, then place the juicy, spiced chicken patty on top.
- Add a slice of onion and tomato, then finish with a dollop of sriracha mayo for a bold, flavorful kick.
