Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground chicken
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 3 whole Sesame seed buns
- 4 slices American cheese slices
- 1 cup Iceberg lettuce
- 8 slices Pickle slices
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Yellow mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Onion, finely chopped
Instructions
Start by making the Big Mac sauce. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, yellow mustard, paprika, white vinegar, and sugar until smooth. Stir in the finely chopped onion and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the ground chicken, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.
Divide the chicken mixture into 8 equal parts and form each part into a thin patty, approximately the size of the buns.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and cook the chicken patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken patties are cooking, lightly toast the sesame seed buns until golden, either in a toaster or on a pan.
Start assembling the chicken Big Mac. On the bottom bun, spread a tablespoon of the Big Mac sauce, followed by a layer of shredded iceberg lettuce.
Add a chicken patty on top of the lettuce, then place a slice of American cheese, 2 pickle slices, and a middle bun (the bottom of another bun).
Repeat the layering with sauce, lettuce, chicken patty, cheese, and pickles on top of the middle bun.
Complete the assembly with the top bun, ensuring each layer aligns properly for a firm stack.
Secure with a toothpick if necessary to hold the burger together, and serve it immediately while warm.
