Asian chicken burgers with pickled red cabbage
The vinegary kick the pickled red cabbage adds to these light and tasty burgers is supreme, not to mention the juicy texture of the burgers themselves. You won’t want to exchange these for a frozen beef burger, that’s for sure!
The chicken is flavoured with ginger, chilli and lemongrass with a dash of sesame oil and sriracha sauce piling in nutty and spicy flavours. They also cook nice and quickly too!
