You can also skip the green chili for less spicy burgers. Quinoa - Cooked quinoa adds a nice crunch and body to the burgers.

Toppings for Masala Chicken Burger

Classic toppings such as lettuce, tomato, and onion work really well on this burger. Love spicy? Add some tangy-hot pickled jalapenos. For the sauce, you can spread mayonnaise, and ketchup or spice it up with sriracha mayo or the delicious Cilantro Jalapeño Sauce from The Chutney Life. I also love to pair these spicy chicken burgers with the quick and easy Mango Cucumber Salad. To make quick homemade sriracha mayo simply stir together mayonnaise and sriracha sauce. Add more or less sriracha depending on the level of spice you like. I usually do half mayo and half sriracha for a spicy creamy sauce.

How to Make Chicken Burgers

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and spray olive over it. Keep aside.  In a medium mixing bowl add all the ingredients for burger patties and mix well. Flatten the mix in the bowl and then make 2 cross slits in the middle to divide the mix into 4 quarters. 

Use a spoon or spatula to shape each quarter into a round ball and drop it on the lined tray, 3 to 4 inches apart from each other. Shape into a round circle with a spoon and then gently press the meat into a flat 3 to 4-inch patty. Press the middle of the patty with your thumb or the back of a spoon, this will allow the patty surface to cook flat and not puff up.  

Lightly spray over the burgers and cook in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. No need to turn halfway over. Juicy Chicken Burgers ready to serve.
