Bring-a-smile chicken burgers with blue cheese or pesto filling 😊 step by step
- Get the ingredients together. I bought a free-range chicken and asked the butcher to debone it, mince the meat and to give me the carcass and bones in a separate bag. I put them in a pan with water, a couple of bayleaves, 3 cloves, 5 cloves of garlic washed but not peeled, and the other half of the enormous onion and left it simmering for a couple of hours to make chicken stock, some of which I used to make some miso soup for dinner..
- Put the minced chicken in a large bowl. Mix it - the thigh and leg meat is darker and juicer than the breast meet, which is why it's a good idea to mix it well (hands work best - you're going to get your hands dirty anyway later when making the balls....)..
- Add the grated onion, salt, herbs, pepper and mix again..
- Make balls of meat and make a hole in the middle with your thumb. Add the filling - either a spoonful of pesto or a knob of blue cheese.
- Close the balls. I put the larger ones on an oven tray and inside the oven, preheated top and bottom to 200º.
- Put a small amount of oil in a non-stick pan and once it is hot, add the burgers. Cook over a moderate to high heat - my stove can heat from 1 minimum to 9 maximum and I did these at 7..
- When you can see the bottom sides of the burgers changing colour as in the photo.
- Flip them over - I needed to use tongs and a spatula because they still weren't firm enough to only use tongs. Leave them another 5 minutes or so.
- Then just to make sure they are cooked through, flip again, lower the heat and cover for another 2 or 3 minutes.
- If using the oven, you don't need to flip. When they look done, turn on the grill and leave for a couple of minutes and then flip to grill the other side..
- Put on a warm plate and serve. The pesto ones are at the front, cheese at the back.
- When the oven ones were cool, I put them in a plastic container and froze them for another day. We'll probably eat them cold with a salad or use them as picnic food one day next week..
Don't press on the burgers while they're cooking—you want to keep the juices and cheese inside the burger, not on your grill.
