Chicken Burger Ingredients
- 2 Burger buns (choose your favorite type)
- 1 pack Chicken breast (approx. 200-250g)
- Plenty of seasoned chicken sauce (about 4-5 Tbsp)
- 2 Tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp Whole grain mustard
- A generous amount of Butterhead lettuce leaves
- A good portion of Carrot slaw (carrot ‘lape’)
- A sufficient amount of thinly shredded cabbage
- A touch of Maple syrup (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare 1 pack of chicken breast. Slice it into bite-sized pieces or your preferred thickness. Place the chicken in a pan and cook over medium heat until golden brown on both sides, ensuring the outside is slightly seared while the inside remains moist. Make sure the chicken breast cooks evenly.
Step 2
Once the chicken breast is partially cooked, generously pour in the seasoned chicken sauce. Stir the chicken to ensure the sauce coats it evenly and continue cooking until the sauce thickens. Allow the sweet and savory sauce to deeply penetrate the chicken.
Step 3
Slice the 2 burger buns in half. Toast the cut sides lightly in a pan or toaster until they are golden brown. This step helps prevent the buns from becoming soggy from the sauce and adds a pleasant, toasty flavor.
Step 4
On the toasted inside of each bun half, spread 1 Tbsp of mayonnaise and 1/2 Tbsp of whole grain mustard. Combining these two sauces creates a rich and harmonious flavor profile.
Step 5
Spread the prepared mayonnaise and whole grain mustard evenly onto the inside of the burger buns. This will form the flavorful base of your burger, adding a touch of tanginess and creaminess.
Step 6
Wash fresh butterhead lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat them dry. Arrange a generous amount of these crisp leaves on the bottom half of the bun. Their fresh crunch will enhance the overall texture of the chicken burger.
Step 7
Now, place the saucy, seasoned chicken breast generously on top of the lettuce. This is the star ingredient, bringing that irresistible sweet and savory flavor.
Step 8
Add a good portion of carrot slaw on top of the chicken. The crisp and refreshing bite of the carrots will add another delightful layer of flavor and a beautiful splash of color.
Step 9
Finally, pile on a generous amount of thinly shredded cabbage. The crispness and subtle sweetness of the cabbage will complement the other ingredients perfectly, making the burger even more delicious.
Step 10
For an extra touch of sweetness, drizzle a little maple syrup over the toppings if desired. This optional step can add a lovely sweet and savory contrast that awakens the palate.
Step 11
Place the top half of the bun to complete your vibrant chicken burger, generously loaded with fresh vegetables! It looks incredibly appetizing, doesn’t it?
Step 12
To make it easier to eat, carefully cut the burger in half, revealing the colorful cross-section. The sight of the overflowing ingredients is sure to make you even hungrier.
Step 13
Enjoy your super simple, yet incredibly delicious and satisfying chicken burger, featuring lean chicken breast and a bounty of fresh vegetables! Make it at home and have a wonderful mealtime with your loved ones.
