15 Minute Chickpea Burgers Recipes

15-MINUTE CHICKPEA BURGERS RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 4 minutes, until translucent and caramelized. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let it cool. Transfer to a food processor. If you don't have a food processor, mash using a fork or potato masher. Add the chickpeas, paprika, cumin, onion powder, coriander and salt and pepper. Pulse for 2 minutes or until you have a thick batter. Add flour and pulse for 1 more minute. Divide the batter in 4 balls for large chickpea burgers or 8 balls for chickpea sliders and transfer to a floured surface. Shape the patties. Heat a greased skillet over medium heat. Add the chickpea patties and cook for 3 minutes per side. Top with whatever burger toppings you like!

15-MINUTE CHICKEN & HALLOUMI BURGERS

Steps:

• Put the chicken breasts between two pieces of baking parchment and bash with a rolling pin until 1cm thick. Cut each into two even pieces.
• Heat two frying pans over a medium-high heat, heating the oil in one. Fry the chicken in the oiled pan for 3-4 mins on each side until cooked through. Season. Reduce the heat, drizzle in the chilli sauce and half the lemon juice and cook for 1-2 mins more until the sauce is reduced. Remove from the heat.
• While the chicken cooks, toast the buns in the dry frying pan for 30 secs. Transfer to a plate, then fry the halloumi in the pan (add a bit of oil if the pan is not non-stick) for 30 secs on each side until golden. Toss the cabbage with the mayo and remaining lemon juice.
• Spoon the hummus (or dip of your choice) into the toasted buns, then top with the rocket, chilli chicken, halloumi and peppers. Drizzle with a little more chilli sauce, spoon over the cabbage, season with black pepper, and top with the bun lids. Serve with any extra cabbage on the side, or a green salad.

CHICKPEA BURGERS

Steps:

• Place the chickpeas, carrot, garlic, onion, eggs and salt in a food processor and pulse until combined. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the breadcrumbs and sesame seeds and stir or gently knead to combine. The mixture will be moist.
• Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture with an ice cream scoop then form into a patty with your hands. You should have 9 patties.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the patties in a single layer until golden brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip the patties, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook until golden brown and heated through, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and repeat with the remaining patties.
• Serve on the buns with your desired toppings and condiments.
