These Peri Peri Chicken Burgers make a great midweek meal any time of the year and. Are a great alternative to the usual burgers.

These homemade Peri Peri chicken burgers are ideal for BBQs, simply marinate beforehand and BBQ it for that classic charred flavor.

Ingredients:

Peri Peri Chicken Burgers:

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoons chili flakes (or to taste)
• 4 cloves of garlic crushed or grated
• Juice of 2 limes
• 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 2 teaspoons oregano
• ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
• Black pepper to taste
• 4 large boneless, skinless chicken thighs.
• 4 large burger buns, split in two and toasted.
• Lettuce, sliced tomato and sliced onion

Method:

• Mix together all of the Peri Peri Chicken ingredients (apart from the actual chicken!) in a large bowl. Place the chicken in the bowl, turning to coat each piece of chicken with marinade. (You can do this in a ziplock bag if you don’t like getting your hands messy!)
• Marinate the chicken for 2 hours in the fridge or up to 24 hours if you have the time. Alternatively, just continue with the recipe.
• Heat your griddle/frying pan for 2 minutes over a high heat (or prepare your BBQ the usual way). Place the chicken in the pan/on the BBQ and cook for 4-6 minutes on each side (depending on thickness – you can check if your chicken is done by cutting into the thickest one – if it’s not raw and pink, you are good to go!).
• Serve with all your favorite extras!
