Indian Chicken Burger Recipe is made with ground chicken and Indian spices. The chicken patties are air-fried with very little olive oil, making them a healthy alternative to store-bought burgers. The patties are topped with tomatoes, cucumber and lettuce and drizzled with a homemade mint sauce sandwiched in brioche buns. These chicken burgers are the perfect handheld snacks for picnics or potlucks or can be enjoyed as a main course!

Notes

  1. To make the mint sauce, blend one bunch of mint leaves with a tablespoon of water, salt, and extra virgin olive oil. You can add a few cashews to thicken it.
  2. Please remove the seeds and ribs of the chili if you don't want the patties to be very hot.
