Chicken Fillet Burger
These chicken burgers are a regular dinner in my house. They pack a punch with the flavour and have a decent amount of protein in each!
I have tried coating the chicken in breadcrumbs, as well as cornflakes and both are equally good. Just depends on how crunchy you want it!

Yields2 ServingsCategoryDinner
2 medium chicken breasts
40 g cornflakes
1 egg
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp smoked paprika
0.50 tsp onion granules
0.50 tsp salt
0.50 tsp pepper
2 slices of low fat cheese
1
In a food processor/blender, gently mix the cornflakes and seasoning together.
Alternatively, combine in a bowl by hand and gently crush.
You don't want to break them down so much that there is no crunch left!
2
Preheat the oven to 180C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
3
Whisk the egg and set aside. Then dip the chicken breast into the egg mixture, and then coat in the cornflakes, ensuring it is fully coated all over.
4
Heat a non-stick pan on medium-high and crisp the chicken breasts on each side to get that "fried" texture.
Transfer to the prepared baking tray and cook for 30-40 minutes or until cooked through and golden.
5
For the final 3 minutes, top the chicken with the sliced cheese and return to the oven to melt.
Remove from the oven and place onto the buns.
6
Then add your favourite burger toppings and serve!
Personally, lettuce, tomato and coleslaw is the perfect combination!
