Recipe type: Lunch box
Ingredients:
  • 1.2kg chicken breasts
  • 3 zucchini
  • 4 carrots
  • 2 broccoli stalks
  • 2 - 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup rice flour
  • 1 tbsp Pureharvest tamari
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil
Method:
  1. In a food processor grate, zucchini, carrots and broccoli.
  2. Remove the vegetables from the food processor and place in a large bowl. Crush garlic and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Change from the grating blade to the mixing blade and add chicken breasts to the food processor. Pulse until the chicken has been finely minced.
  4. Add the chicken to the veggies. Whisk the eggs lightly together then add to the mixture. Add tamari and mix well.
  5. Add in the rice flour and combine. I find using my hands and squeezing the mixture works well to combine thoroughly.
  6. Use a ¼ cup of the mixture and shape into burgers. We like them thin, so flatten them out.
  7. Place them on a sheet of baking paper as you continue to make them.
  8. Heat coconut oil in a large frying pan on a medium high heat. Place burgers in the pan and cook on each side for 3-4 minutes or until golden. I fit 7 burgers at a time in our pan.
  9. Remove from the pan. If you want to keep them all warm, place them in a dish and cover with aluminium foil.
  10. These burgers freeze really well. I simply separate them with baking paper and then place them in a freezer container.
  11. For the kids lunches I will cut up the burgers, put them in wraps with some salad and mayo.
