Ingredients
- 500 grams ground chicken
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 pieces dairy-free burger buns
- 4 tablespoons dairy-free mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 8 slices sliced tomato
- 4 slices sliced red onion
- 8 slices pickle slices
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, and chopped cilantro. Mix until just combined.
Step 2
Divide the chicken mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties about 3/4 inch thick.
Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, place the patties in the pan and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Step 4
While the patties are cooking, prepare the spicy mayo by mixing the dairy-free mayonnaise with the hot sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
Step 5
Toast the dairy-free burger buns in a toaster, on a grill, or in a dry skillet until slightly golden.
Step 6
Assemble the burgers: Spread a tablespoon of the spicy mayo on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with a lettuce leaf, cooked chicken patty, 2 slices of tomato, 1 slice of red onion, and 2 pickle slices. Spread another tablespoon of the spicy mayo on the top half of the bun and place it over the toppings.
Step 7
Serve the burgers immediately, optionally with a side of sweet potato fries or a fresh salad.
