MASALA CHICKEN BURGER

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, add ground chicken, olive oil and all the other ingredients. Using a fork or spatula, mix everything really well.
• Add about a teaspoon measure of the chicken patty mix to a bowl or a plate and microwave on high for 12-15 seconds, or until the mix cooks through. Check for taste and make adjustments accordingly.
• Using a large spoon, roughly score the ground chicken mix in the bowl into 4 portions.
• Line a baking sheet or board with individual patty sized parchment squares (see notes). Fill a bowl with tap water. Using the spoon, scoop out one portion and place it on the parchment liner. Dip the spoon in water and start shaping the patty, smoothing it into a round even-sized patty.If grilling it outdoors, gently press down the spoon in the middle, creating a small impression. This prevents the patty from puffing up in the middle. Skip this step if cooking in a skillet or oven.
• Continue the same process with the remaining patties. Once ready, stack them together using a parchment liner to separate them. At this point, you can freeze any excess patties in a large ziplock bag. For cooking, use one of the following methods:
• Heat a wide non-stick pan on medium-high heat. Wait for it to get hot, about 2-3 minutes, then add about a tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chicken patties about 1 inch apart. Cook for 5 minutes, then flip and cook another 5 minutes, or until cooked though. If using a meat thermometer, the center of the patty should record a temperature of 165°F or higher. Remove and keep aside.
• Heat a grill on medium-high heat (or 375°F). Place a large piece of aluminum foil and grease it with cooking spray or brush with olive oil. Place the chicken patties on the greased foil. The foil ensures even cooking of the chicken patty and prevents is from burning. Cook for 6-7 minutes on the first side, flip and cook another 6-7 minutes, or until it cooks through.
• Place the patties on a lightly greased aluminum lined baking sheet. Arrange the top rack so there is a 3-inch clearance from the broiler plates. Place the sheet on the top shelf and broil for 8 minutes. Flip the burgers and cook another 2-3 minutes on the second side.
• Grease the fryer basket with cooking spray or brush it with olive oil. Place 2 patties at a time. Slide the basket back in position and cook on 360°F for 8 minutes. Remove the basket, flip the burger patties and put it back in for another 5-6 minutes, or until the chicken cooks through.
• Peel and cut a large onion into 1/4 inch slices. Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onion rings and sprinkle a pinch of salt. This helps them caramelize faster. Flip onion rings after a minute and cook for another minute on the other side. The same process can be followed on the grill or airfryer. Remove the grilled onions and keep aside for later.
• Spread some butter or olive oil on your burger buns and lightly toast them in a skillet, air fryer or grill. Spread a generous layer of sriracha mayo, or your preferred condiment, on the top and bottom bun. Layer in the following order to preserve maximum crispness of ingredients - lettuce, burger patty, grilled onions, tomato slices and finally the top bun. Enjoy!
