Spicy Crumbed Chicken & Bacon Burger
with a fresh side salad
Stop! Don’t reach for those frozen-for-weeks premade burger patties, Chef. Simply follow this recipe and rather make homemade, crispy-panko crumbed chicken burger patties. Placed on a toasted bun smeared with spicy mayo, and nestled between salty bacon, caramelised onions, creamy avo, plus an optional fried egg. Sided with a creamy feta salad.

HOMEMADE PATTIES
In a bowl, combine the mince, the diced Onion (to taste), the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Wet your hands slightly and shape the mince mixture into 1 patty about 2cm thick. Whisk 1 egg in a bowl. Prepare two more shallow dishes: one containing the flour (seasoned lightly) and one containing the crumb. Coat the Chicken patty in the flour first, dusting off any excess flour. Next, coat in the whisked egg, and, lastly, coat in the crumb. Set aside in the fridge.
CRISPY BACON
Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, fry the bacon strips until browned and crispy, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.
GOLDEN Onion
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced Onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add a sweetener (to taste). Remove from the pan, season, and cover.
TOASTED BUN
Halve the burger bun and spread butter or oil over the cut-side. Return the pan to medium heat. When hot, toast the bun, cut-side down, until golden, 1-2 minutes.
CRUMB… DONE!
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the crumbed patty until golden, 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and rest for 2-3 minutes.
AVO SALAD
Halve the Avocado, peel the skin off, keeping the flesh intact, and thinly slice. Season and set aside. In a bowl, combine the rinsed salad leaves, the Cucumber rounds, the drained feta, ½ the sliced avo, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
BURGER NIGHT!
Top the bottom bun with the spicy mayo, the fried patty, the crispy bacon, the caramelised onions, the remaining avo, and the fried egg (optional). Side with the fresh avo salad, and enjoy!
