Description
Chicken burgers make a leaner alternative to beef and we’ve kept these juicy with some sweet and slightly spicy chilli jam. Add freshness and texture with a crunchy sesame-flavoured coleslaw.
- 4 chicken and chilli jam burgers
- 4 brioche buns
- 4 tablespoons sweet chilli jam (or sweet chilli sauce)
- 1 baby cucumber, thinly sliced
- 2 spring onions, finely sliced
- 1 carrot, peeled and cut into thin matchsticks
- 1 yellow pepper, thinly sliced
- Small bunch coriander, leaves picked
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- ½ teaspoon honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Combine the carrot, cucumber, spring onions and yellow pepper in a bowl. Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar and honey and mix well. Add to the vegetables with the sesame seeds and toss to combine.
- Heat a heavy based frying pan (preferably a cast iron griddle).
- When it’s hot, add a little oil and fry the chicken burgers for around 5 minutes each side, or until cooked through.
- Toast the buns and top with mayonnaise. Add some of the coleslaw, followed by the burgers, some sweet chilli sauce and some more coleslaw. Close the buns and serve.
