Chicken burgers
While I have all the ingredients out, I like to make a big batch of these chicken burgers and freeze them.

Ingredients
3 chicken breasts, minced
200g breadcrumbs
2 eggs
150g flour
1 tbsp garlic granules
1tsp paprika
Salt and pepper
200ml rapeseed oil/sunflower/veg oil
50g butter
To serve
4 burger buns
50g mayonnaise
Iceberg lettuce
Method
Divide the chicken mixture into four equally sized balls and use your hands or a burger press to make burger patties.
Place the breadcrumbs into a large bowl. Crack the eggs into another bowl and whisk.
Combine the flour, garlic granules, paprika and some salt and pepper in a third bowl.
First, coat the burger patties in flour, one at a time, then dip them into the egg mixture and finally, coat them all over in breadcrumbs.
Place the oil in a frying pan, add the butter, and melt on a medium to high heat. Once the butter is bubbling, carefully place the breaded burgers into the pan.
Shallow fry on a medium heat until golden, before turning to fry the other sides.
Ensure they are fully cooked through and golden all over.
You can also cook them in the air fryer: spray with oil and air fry for 12-15 minutes at 170°C.
Toast the burger buns and spread both buns with mayonnaise, add a generous serving of lettuce, and place the burger on top.
