Spicy Pulled Chicken Burgers
- 1 pack of The Spice Tailor Fiery Goan Curry
- 4 chicken thigh fillets, fat trimmed off
- 2 tsp sugar (optional)
TO SERVE:
- 3 brioche or burger buns or other
- 5 iceberg lettuce leaves, shredded
- 1 ripe tomato, sliced
- ½ small red onion, finely sliced or 2 chopped green onions
- 3 rounded tbsp Greek Yogurt
- Small handful of fresh cilantro (leaves and stalks), chopped
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF/200ºC/Gas Mark 6.
- Lightly toast the spices from the whole spice sachet (saving the chilli for another cook) in a pan for 40 seconds. Using a pestle and mortar, grind them until fine.
- Mix the sugar (if using) and spices into a bowl with the base and main sauces. Add the chicken and coat well.
- Place in a small roasting tin and bake for 15-18 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Baste the chicken halfway with some excess sauce from the bowl.
- Meanwhile, mix the yogurt with the cilantro and green onions if using. Season well.
- Once the chicken is done, remove from the oven and leave to rest for 5 minutes. Then, using 2 forks, shred the chicken and mix with any juices left in the roasting tin.
- Meanwhile, place the buns in the oven to heat through, around 2-3 minutes. Build the burgers; layer lettuce, tomato and red onion (if using), 1/3rd the amount of chicken, a heaped spoon of the yogurt mix and top with the final bun. Enjoy.
