Spicy Masala Chicken Burgers

ground chicken

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: ground beef

Ground turkey is leaner, while ground beef is often less expensive.

burger buns

🥗Healthier: whole wheat buns

💰Cheaper: white bread

Whole wheat buns add fiber, while white bread can be a cost-effective alternative.

Combine ground chicken, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped green chili in a bowl.

Add coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, salt, and pepper to the mixture.

Mix in bread crumbs and beaten egg until well combined.

Form the mixture into burger patties, about the size of your burger buns.

Chill the patties in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly oil the surface.

Cook the patties for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown.

Toast the burger buns on the grill until lightly browned.

Assemble the burgers by placing a patty on each bun, topped with sliced tomatoes and lettuce.

Serve with your choice of chutney or sauce.
