I love chicken satay, that spicy meat on a stick, marinated and grilled and served with a peanut sauce. I tried to get that same effect with a chicken burger.

Ingredients

  • peanut butter: 2 Tbsp
  • lime juice: 1 tsp
  • Asian Chili pepper sauce (such as sambal oelek): 1 tsp (to taste)
  • carrots cut into thin matchsticks: 0.5 cup
  • cucumber cut into thin matchsticks: 0.5 cup
  • jalapeno peppers cut into thin matchsticks: 2 Tbsp
  • seasoned rice vinegar: 1 Tbsp
  • fish sauce: 2 tsp
  • garlic: 3 clove (minced)
  • ½ tablespoons coconut milk: 1 piece
  • ground cumin: 0.5 tsp
  • ground turmeric: 0.25 tsp
  • Asian Chili pepper sauce (such as sambal oelek): 1 tsp
  • dry bread crumbs: 1 Tbsp
  • soy sauce: 2 tsp
  • ground chicken: 1 pound

  4. Break off a small piece of chicken mixture and fry in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until chicken is browned and no longer pink. Taste the little cooked piece and season the raw chicken mixture to taste with salt and cayenne pepper. Do not eat raw chicken mix.

  5. Spoon 1/4 the chicken mixture into skillet, forming it into a patty shape, and cook until bottom of patty is browned, about 5 minutes. Flip patty and cook until other side is browned and chicken mixture is no longer pink inside, about 5 more minutes. Repeat with remaining chicken to make 3 more patties.
