Ingredients

  • 12 ounce skinless boneless chicken breast minced
  • 1/2 cup bell pepper (capsicum, any color) chopped
  • 1/4 cup spring onion chopped
  • 1 jalapeno optional
  • 1 cup mango
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened desiccated coconut
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup tomato sliced
  • 2 cups salad greens of your choice (iceberg, arugula, romaine, etc)
  • 4 burger buns or bread rolls of your liking (GF if needed)
  • sea salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Chop the red bell pepper, green onions, and mango into cubes. Mince the jalapeno and chop the parsley.
  • Ground the chicken breast using a food processor.
  • Mix the ground chicken with the red pepper, green onion, jalapeno, mango, coconut, parsley, and egg in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Make 4 (or 2 big) burger patties.
  • Grill/cook the burgers in a grilling/frying pan.
  • Serve on toasted bun with tomato slices and lettuce.
  • Or serve with green salad on the side.

Notes

  • Also very yummy with oven-roasted (sweet) potato chips instead of burger buns.
  • To make it even better, also add a few slices cucumber and/or make a yogurt-based herb or avocado dressing for extra flavor.
  • Delicious on the BBQ, too!
