Prepare the Mexican Chicken Patty:
- Begin by washing and cleaning the chicken breast thoroughly before mincing it.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced chicken, garlic, onion, grated cheese, coriander leaves, chopped pickled jalapeños, tomato salsa, cumin powder, salt, pepper, and the whole egg. Mix all the ingredients together until fully combined.
- Heat a griddle or pan on medium-low heat. Once hot, lightly spray with oil.
- Shape the chicken mixture into medium-sized balls and flatten them to form patties. Place them on the heated griddle and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the patties are golden and cooked through.
- Remove the patties from the griddle and set aside.
-
Assemble the Burger:
- Slice the burger buns in half and spread butter on each half. Toast the buns lightly on the griddle until they become golden brown.
- Spread a dollop of sour cream on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
- Place the cooked Mexican chicken patty on top of the sour cream. Add a few rings of onion and a spoonful of fresh tomato salsa.
- Top with the other half of the bun and secure the burger with a toothpick.
Serving Suggestion:
Serve the Mexican Chicken Burger hot, paired with homemade nachos, a refreshing napa cabbage coleslaw with Greek yogurt, and a glass of cinnamon-spiced orange iced tea. For dessert, indulge in a rich decadent chocolate soufflé to complete the meal.
