Quick And Easy Gourmet Chicken Burgers Recipes

NATASHA'S CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix ground chicken, 1/4 cup bread crumbs, onion, egg, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Moisten hands and shape chicken mixture, 2 tablespoons at a time, into flat, oval-shaped patties.
• Spread remaining 1/4 cup bread crumbs into a shallow dish. Roll patties in bread crumbs to coat.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Cook patties in hot oil until deep brown in color on the bottom, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn patties and cook until other side is browned, 3 to 4 minutes more.

GOURMET PUB BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix ground beef, bread crumbs, shallot, Dijon mustard, egg, garlic, salt, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Refrigerate mixture to incorporate flavors, 20 minutes to 2 hours.
• Form ground beef mixture into 6 patties.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat; lay pancetta slices in a single layer in the hot skillet. Cook until pancetta begins to sweat, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pancetta from skillet and keep warm.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook patties on the preheated grill until burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-well burgers. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
• Place 1 burger into each of the buns; top burger with a pancetta slice.

QUICK AND EASY GOURMET CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• Place bread in a small bowl and cover with water. Set aside to soak for 5 minutes, then drain and squeeze dry. Place in a large bowl with chicken mince, chopped green onion, half of coriander and egg. Mix thoroughly and season. Using wet hands, shape into 4 patties, or flatened balls.
• Lightly spray a griddle or sandwich press with olive oil and cook patties until browned and cooked through. Set aside.
• Combine capsicum, tomato, celery, onion, parsley, vinegar, mustard and salt to taste in a medium bowl.
• Cut the bread into four pieces crossways; split the bread pieces in half. Toast, cut side up, under a preheated grill.
• Layer four toasted bread pieces with lettuce, capsicum mixture, patties and mayonnaise. Top with the remaining bread slices. Garnish with remaining corriander.

EASY AND JUICY CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• Wash hands thoroughly before and after handling uncooked chicken. Spray indoor grill with fat free cooking spray and let in run five minutes while you are prepping your burgers.
• Mince onions, celery, bell pepper, and garlic for about 20 seconds in food processor (DO NOT Puree). The mixture will seem a bit too moist and soggy, but that's OK. The moisture will keep your burger juicy, although you will lose some of it (along with excess fat) during cooking. Flatten ground chicken by hand on a cutting board, add seasoning, bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, and vegetable mix. Blend chicken mixture by hand until consistent. Form a ball, then flatten it out again and form into four tight patties.
• Season one side of patties with Mrs. Dash. Place all patties seasoned side down on indoor grill, then season the other side. Close your grill and cook about 8 minutes until firm and light brown with dark grill marks.
• When burgers are done, place a slice of fat free cheese on top of patties (if desired) and continue on the grill until cheese melts. My wife put her burger together with fat free Mayo. I tried a swizzle of fat free ranch dressing. Both were terrific!
