Chicken Burger

Juicy high-heat pan-seared chicken burger with melted Gouda, sweet chili glaze, creamy mayo-ketchup sauce, fresh lettuce and tomato, crunchy pickles, and crispy fried onions on buttery toasted buns. Tips: Use higher heat for a good sear and shorter cooking time—thin chicken can become tough if cooked too slowly. Don't add the sweet chili until the end, or the sugar can burn. Pat very wet/marinated chicken slightly dry before searing for better browning.

Step 1

1. Mix 2 parts mayo with 1 part ketchup and set aside. 2. Slice the tomato and pickles; prepare the lettuce and fried onions. 3. Heat a pan over medium-high/high heat. Add a little oil and cook the pounded chicken until deeply browned and fully cooked at the end add the sweet chilli sauce into the pan and smear the chicken into the sauce. 4. Lower the heat, place Gouda on the chicken, cover, and let it melt. 5. Toast the cut sides of the buns in butter until golden. 6. Assemble: bottom bun → sauce (more than top bun) → lettuce → tomato → Gouda chicken → fried onions → pickles → small sweet chili drizzle → sauce → top bun.
