Thai Chicken Burger



I like having different types of burger. I actually cannot remember the last time I had a traditional burger with ketchup, mustard and relish.  This Thai burger was a great twist on the iconic burger.

What You Need :
1 lb of ground chicken
1/2 cup of peanut satay sauce - you can make your own, I used jarred - photo below
2 green onions, sliced

In a bowl, mix the ground chicken with the satay sauce and green onions.
Form in to patties and cooked in pan on medium heat for about 2-3 minutes per side, depending on the size you made the patties.

Burger dressings

Pickles :

**make pickled cucumbers a day of few hours in advance for better tasting pickles.
Slice English cucumber add to a bowl
In a sauce pan  add 1/2 cup of rice wine vinegar and 1/2 cup sugar
a few sprinkles of red hot chili pepper flakes.
Add the vinegar to the cucumbers and chill in a container.

Shredded cabbage and carrots.

Ginger mayonnaise - 3 Tb mixed with 1 Tb minced ginger
