CHINESE CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine the jicama, bell peppers, snow peas, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, sesame seeds, soy sauce and sugar in a medium mixing bowl, tossing to combine. Set aside.
• Combine the mayonnaise, Sriracha, lime zest and juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Combine the chicken, scallions, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, lemongrass and garlic, gently mixing to incorporate. Divide the mixture into 4-6 (6-8oz) patties, place on a cookie sheet cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Chilling the burgers, prior to grilling will help bind the lean ground chicken.
• Heat an oiled grill or grill pan over medium-high heat, and brush with the vegetable oil. Place the patties on the grill and cook, turning once until done, 6 to 8 minutes per side. During the last few minutes of cooking, baste each burger with 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce and lightly grill the buns. Oiling the grill surface will help prevent the burgers from sticking.
• To assemble, spread about 1 tablespoon of the Sriracha lime mayo on each bun bottom and top.
• Place the patties on the bun bottoms, top with about 1/3 cup of the slaw and a few cilantro leaves, add the bun top and enjoy!
• These burgers are great served with sweet potato fries or sweet potato chips.

SRIRACHA-GLAZED CHICKEN BURGER & PICKLED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Flatten the chicken thighs out by lightly bashing them between two pieces of baking parchment with a rolling pin, then put in a sealable container with the garlic, paprika, chilli, ginger and a pinch of salt. Massage the mix into the meat, then chill until ready to cook for at least 1 hr or up to 24 hrs.
• To pickle the cabbage, put the vinegar, sugar, coriander seeds and turmeric in a pan and bring to the boil to dissolve the sugar. Take off the heat and stir in the shredded cabbage, ensuring it's completely immersed in the liquid. Cover and leave to cool.
• For the relish, sprinkle the cucumber with a little salt and leave for 10 mins. Squeeze out the liquid, then stir the cucumber through the mayo and lime juice and set aside. For the glaze, mix the mustard and sriracha together in a separate bowl.
• Heat a barbecue to medium or the grill to its highest setting. Barbecue or grill the chicken for 5 mins on one side, then flip and continue to cook, brushing with the glaze a few times until sticky, glossy and cooked through. Toast the buns, spoon some cabbage onto the base, place the chicken on top, then dollop a generous amount of the cooling cucumber relish over the chicken before closing the buns and serving.
