Ingredients
Scale
For the Chicken Burgers
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking oil for frying
For the Bang Bang Sauce
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 to 2 teaspoons sriracha (adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken Patties: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
- Cook the Chicken Patties: Heat the oil in a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken patties and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Ensure the patties are golden brown and cooked through.
- Make the Bang Bang Sauce: While the patties are cooking, mix mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha in a small bowl. Adjust the sriracha quantity based on your preferred spice level.
- Assemble and Serve: Place the cooked chicken patties on burger buns or lettuce wraps. Generously spoon the Bang Bang sauce over the patties. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
Notes
- You can add finely chopped onion or garlic powder to the burger mix for extra flavor.
- Adjust the spiciness of the sauce by varying the amount of sriracha.
- For a lower-carb option, serve the burgers wrapped in lettuce leaves instead of buns.
- Ground turkey can be used as an alternative to ground chicken if preferred.
- Ensure patties are cooked through to avoid any foodborne illnesses.
