Grilled Chicken Burger Recipe

If you are trying to cut down on the amount of red meat you eat then why not try this tasty grilled chicken burger recipe.  Chicken is a wonderful meat for burgers as it can take on the flavours of spices and herbs very well.

You can tweak this wonderful grilled chicken burger recipe to suit your needs as long as you keep a few basic rules in mind. I have added Thyme mayonnaise to this recipe to give the burger a lovely edge.

Ingredients

Preparation

Make sure you grill the chicken properly and always prepare your meat correctly for the best results. Most of the flavour in a good grilled burger is in the preparation and herbs and spices. The following recipe should serve 10-12 people, if this is too much all you need to do is half the contents

• Add the chicken burger ingredients into a bowl and set to work mixing all the ingredients together thoroughly. There is no substitute for your hand for this job and does a far better job than any machine. Once you have worked all the ingredients together well, take the mixture and break into 10-12 even pieces. Roll the pieces in your hand and then flatten into patties.

• Prepare your grill for high heat cooking and place the burgers on the grill. Cook the burgers for around 10 minutes, turning them occasionally to ensure they don’t burn.

• How to make the Thyme mayonnaise. Place the egg yolks, crème fresh, mustard and half the vinegar into a mixer and set it to whisk. Whisk for around two minutes until the mixer is creamy. Now start to add the oil one spoonful at a time ensuring your whisking all the time. Now add the remaining vinegar, salt and pepper and you will end up with a wonderfully rich, creamy mayonnaise

• Serve your grilled chicken burgers with a nice salad and enjoy.
