There’s nothing like a juicy cheeseburger. But every so often I want a change and this Asian burger is just that. It’s made with ground chicken and is low in fat and has a high protein count. It’s an easy and fast recipe to make also so it should make a nice quick dinner when you’re in a hurry or just want to relax.
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. ground skinless chicken breast
6 tablespoons low-fat Asian sesame salad dressing
3 tablespoons plain dry bread crumbs
2 scallions, chopped
¼ teaspoon salt
1 (12 oz.) bag broccoli coleslaw mix
2 tablespoons water
DIRECTIONS:
1. Spray the broiler rack with nonstick spray; preheat the broiler.
2. Mix the chicken, 3 tablespoons of the dressing, breadcrumbs, scallions and 1/8 teaspoon of the salt. Form into 4 burgers. Broil 5 inches from the heat until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
3. Microwave the coleslaw and water, covered in a microwavable bowl on HIGH until crisp-tender, 3 minutes. Drain. Toss with 1 tablespoon dressing and the remaining salt. Top the burgers with the remaining dressing. Serve with the coleslaw.
