Best Chicken Paella Burgers With Spicy Pimento Mayo Recipes

PAELLA BURGERS

Steps:

• Prepare a medium fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium.
• For the mayonnaise:
• Combine the oil and garlic in a small, fire-proof saucepan on the grill and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and saffron and heat, stirring occasionally and using the back of a spoon to crush the saffron and help release the color, until the mixture is reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside to cool.
• When the saffron mixture is cool, add the mayonnaise and stir to blend. Cover and chill until ready to use.
• For the patties:
• Slice the chorizo and pulse in a food processor to chop. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the oil, garlic, wine, saffron threads, onion, sweet pepper, salt, black pepper, bread crumbs, and egg and mix well. Coarsely chop the shrimp and add to chorizo mixture. Add the ground chicken and mix gently. Shape into 6 patties to fit the rolls.
• Put the onion and pepper slices on a baking sheet or platter and brush with the oil. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
• When the grill is ready, rub the grill rack with oil. Place the patties on the grill and cook for 6 minutes per side, until cooked through, being careful not to overcook. Grill the onion and pepper slices until crisp-tender and showing grill marks, about 1 minute per side for the peppers and 3 minutes per side for the onion. While they are cooking, toast the rolls.
• To assemble the burgers:
• Spread the toasted sides of the rolls with the mayonnaise. Place a patty on the roll bottoms, then add the grilled onion and red peppers, dividing evenly. Top with the tomato slices and the roll tops.

SPICY AUSSIE CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat a grill with a medium-high heat fire.
• 2. Gently mix together the chicken, sambal oelek, 11/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Form into 4 (4-inch) patties with an indentation in the center of each burger.
• 3. Brush the grill grate with 1 tablespoon oil. Lay the burgers on the grill and cook until grill marks appear, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the burgers and continue grilling until an instant-read thermometer inserted sideways registers 160 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Set burgers aside to rest.
• 4. Lightly brush the pineapple rings with oil, then grill the rings turning once, until distinct grill marks appear, about 3 minutes per side.
• 5. Meanwhile, heat a large heavy nonstick skillet on the grill or on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Melt the butter and fry the eggs, sunny-side up, 3 to 4 minutes.
• 5. Tuck the burgers into the rolls, top with pineapple rings, beets, lettuce, tomato slices, and eggs. Serve.

SWEET-AND-SPICY KETTLE CORN

Steps:

• Mix 1/2 teaspoon each paprika and salt, 1/4 teaspoon each ground coriander and white pepper and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper in a bowl. Make a bag of microwave popcorn. While it pops, cook 5 tablespoons sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until it melts and turns light brown. Remove from the heat; stir in 1 tablespoon butter. Pour the caramel over the popcorn in a bowl, sprinkle with the spice mix and toss. Spread out on a baking sheet to cool.
