Lyndon Espiritu, the hospital’s assistant director of production, café and catering, created this tasty alternative to beef burgers by grinding chicken thigh meat and blending it with a variety of herbs. He tops it with a spicy mix of mayonnaise and sriracha sauce.
Ingredients
2 3/4 lb. boneless chicken thighs
1/4 cup flour
2 cups diced onions
1 cup fresh parsley
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
1 tbsp. celery salt
1 tbsp. ground coriander
2 tsp. ground pepper
8 burger buns or brioche rolls
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp. sriracha sauce
4 leaves romaine lettuce, cut in halves
3 medium red tomatoes, sliced
1 medium red onion, sliced thin
48 oz. tomato sauce
Steps
- In buffalo chopper, grind chicken, flour, onions, parsley, cilantro, celery salt, coriander and pepper until chicken and herbs are finely ground and all ingredients are mixed together.
- Make 8, 5-ounce patties. Place on sheet pan and cook in oven at 375°F, until internal temperature reads 165°F.
- To build burger, spread bottom half of bun with 2 ounces mayocha (a blend of 1/2 cup mayonnaise and 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce). Add 1 piece romaine, burger, 3 to 4 slices tomato and 1 slice red onion. Cover with top half of bun.
