TASTY CHICKEN TIKKA BURGERS

These easy chicken burgers are ideal for a weekend for the whole family.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

4 Chicken breasts
6 tsp Tikka seasoning
2 tsp Oil
4 Brioche buns
Lettuce
Dollop of mango chutney

Steps:

Cut a slice through the chicken breasts so you can flatten them out. I do this by bashing them with a rolling pin between a sheet of baking paper.
Sprinkle over the tikka seasoning.
In a large frying pan heat the oil and pan fry your chicken breasts for about 7 minutes each side on a medium heat (this will depend on how much you've flattened them so just cut one open to check it's cooked before serving).
Plate up your burgers. I like to toast the brioche buns. Enjoy!

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

3/4 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted
3/4 teaspoon coriander seeds, toasted
2 cups whole-milk yogurt
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 (1 1/2-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
3 tablespoons vegetable oil plus additional for greasing pan
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon garam masala (Indian spice mixture)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
5 pounds skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Accompaniments: mango and red pepper chutney and mint raita
Garnish: lime wedges
Special Equipment
20 (12-inch) wooden skewers

Steps:

Purée all ingredients except chicken in a blender until spices are well ground.
Put chicken in a large bowl, or divide between 2 large sealable plastic bags, and add yogurt mixture, stirring or turning to coat. Marinate chicken, covered and chilled (turning occasionally if using bags), at least 4 hours.
Soak skewers in water 30 minutes. While skewers are soaking, bring chicken to room temperature.
Preheat broiler and brush a broiler pan lightly with oil.
Divide chicken among skewers (about 5 cubes per skewer), leaving an 1/8-inch space between cubes, and arrange about 5 skewers across pan. Broil chicken about 4 inches from heat, turning over once, until browned in spots and just cooked through, 9 to 12 minutes total.
Transfer cooked skewers to a large platter and, if desired, cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Broil remaining chicken in same manner. Remove chicken from skewers and serve warm or at room temperature.
