Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Ground chicken (or ground turkey)
- 100 g Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 small Onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Cumin powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Olive oil (for cooking)
- 1 large Avocado (ripe)
- 3 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.25 tsp Salt (for avocado sauce)
- 1 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
- 1 tbsp Water (optional, for thinning avocado sauce)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken (or turkey), breadcrumbs, egg, chopped parsley, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, cumin powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty, about 2 cm thick.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties in batches, ensuring they do not overcrowd the pan.
Cook the patties for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 74°C or 165°F). Remove from pan and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the avocado sauce. Scoop the flesh of the avocado into a blender or food processor.
Add the Greek yogurt, lime juice, salt, chopped cilantro, and 1 tablespoon of water (if needed) to the blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust the seasoning and consistency to taste by adding more lime juice, salt, or water, if necessary.
Serve the patties warm with a generous drizzle of avocado sauce on top or on the side for dipping.
Garnish with extra chopped parsley or cilantro, if desired. Enjoy!
