Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Vegan chicken patties
- 4 pieces Burger buns (vegan)
- 4 tablespoons Vegan mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Hot sauce (vegan)
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 large Tomato
- 8 slices Pickles
- 4 pieces Vegan cheese slices
- 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Chili powder or flakes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Season the vegan chicken patties with cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper on both sides.
Cook the seasoned patties in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and heated through.
Place a vegan cheese slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking so it can melt slightly.
While the patties cook, slice the tomato into thin rounds and prepare the lettuce leaves, pickles, and any additional burger toppings.
In a small bowl, mix the vegan mayonnaise and hot sauce to form a spicy sauce.
Toast the vegan burger buns lightly in the skillet or under a broiler if desired.
Spread a generous amount of the spicy mayo sauce on the bottom half of each burger bun.
Place a cooked vegan chicken patty on top of the sauced bun, followed by a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and two pickle slices.
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
