Crispy Chicken Burger
Ingredients
-
2 Small Skinless Chicken Breasts
-
1 Egg
-
2 Tsp Sweet Paprika
-
50g (½ Cup) Dried Bread Crumbs
-
2 Tbsp Flour
-
Salt to taste
-
2 Tbsp Cooking Oil
-
For the Burger
4 Tbsp Mayonnaise
-
2 Tbsp Sweet Chilli Sauce
-
1 Lime
-
2 Burger Buns
-
Frisee Lettuce
-
Cucumber
Directions
-
Crack the egg into a wide flat bowl and season generously with salt then add the paprika and beat with a fork.
-
Sprinkle the flour and bread crumbs onto separate plates.
-
Take each chicken breast and first coat with the flour, then dip them into the egg.
-
Finally, coat the chicken breasts with the breadcrumbs.
-
Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan over a medium high heat.
-
When hot add the chicken breasts "presentation" side down.
-
Cook until golden which should take 3-4 minutes.
-
Flip the chicken and transfer to the oven.
-
Roast at 180°C or 350°F until the internal temperature reaches 74°C or 165°F. This should take 12-15 minutes. Or you can pop them in an air fryer at 180°C or 350°F for 8-10 minutes.
-
Zest and juice the lime.
-
Mix together the mayo, sweet chilli sauce, the zest and half of the juice from the lime. Taste and add salt as required.
-
Thinly slice the cucumber and pick the lettuce.
-
I like to build my burger in the following order. Bun, mayo, cucumber, lettuce, more mayo, chicken patty, cucumber and more mayo before adding the top!
