Instructions
CHICKEN BURGERS

Place the chicken in a food processor along with the garlic and onion. Blitz to combine. Transfer to a bowl and mix with the tomato puree, chili, salt, pepper and parsley until combined.

Press into two burger patties or use a burger press. Add the ghee to a non stick frying pan. Fry the chicken burgers for about 3 – 4 minutes per side on low / medium heat (6 – 8 minutes in total) or until cooked through. Make sure the heat is not too high so you do not burn the outside.

SLAW

Shred the red and white cabbage using a mandoline, or sharp knife. Finely dice the onion and parsley. Transfer to a bowl and mix to combine.

MAYO

In a clean small bowl, mix the mayo ingredients together using a spoon. Stir through the slaw, keeping about 1.5 tbsp back to add on top of the burgers.

TO SERVE

Serve burgers with mayo and top with slaw.

STORAGE

Best served fresh or can be stored in Tupperware in the fridge for up to 1 day and the burgers reheated.
