Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

For the Greek yogurt sauce:
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon sea salt
For the burgers:
1 pound ground chicken or turkey breast
1 medium zucchini, shredded, excess water squeezed out with a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth
½ cup corn kernels
½ medium red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and finely chopped
3 green onions (white and green parts), thinly sliced
1 large egg, lightly beaten
½ cup whole wheat panko bread crumbs or almond flour
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons avocado oil
For serving:
2 whole grain pitas, halved into pockets
¼ cup hummus, homemade or store-bought
Romaine lettuce or spinach
Chopped cucumber
Sliced tomatoes

Steps:

  • Make the Greek yogurt sauce by mixing together all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Place in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • In a large bowl, combine all of the burger ingredients except the oil. Use your hands to mix well and form 4 patties.
  • Heat the oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the patties and sear for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Carefully transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 7 to 10 minutes, until cooked through.
  • While the burgers are baking, smear about a tablespoon of hummus inside each pita pocket. Stuff with the veggies and top with the cooked burgers. Either drizzle the Greek yogurt sauce inside or serve it as a dip.

ZUCCHINI MUSTARD CHICKEN BURGERS



Zucchini Mustard Chicken Burgers image

This low GI recipe has been adapted from a recipe in Michelle Trute's 'cooking with conscience book 2' which focuses on low-fat, low GI, easily prepared food. In making this, I processed the garlic and zucchini and used a small amount of oil to panfry the patties in a non-stick pan, and added a dollop of tzaziki on top of the burgers. Zaar would not allow me to include tzatziki as an ingredient, so I've included Greek yoghurt which is what I'd use if I had no tzatziki on hand. If you haven't tried Greek yoghurt before, it's much creamier than other yoghurts. And if you want a good recipe for tzatziki, I recommend Ravenseyes' Recipe #306901 or Recipe #157176. 160 grams of ground chicken = just over 5 ounces of ground chicken.
