Ingredients

Ingredients

100 grams of free range chicken thigh
1/2 teaspoon of cold pressed coconut oil
2 teaspoons of whole egg mayonnaise*
1/2 garlic clove, crushed
2 small cos lettuce leaves
2 slices of tomato
1 slice of red onion
4 slices of a baby cucumber

Almond Meal Roll

1/4 cup of blanched almond meal
1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal
1 small free range egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon of unsweetened almond milk
1/4 teaspoon of gluten free baking powder
1 pinch of Himalayan or sea salt

Marinade

1 teaspoon of fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon of dried chilli flakes
1/2 garlic clove, crushed

Method

  1. Heat your oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4 and line a tray with baking paper. 
  2. Mix all of the almond meal roll ingredients together in a small bowl. If you only have larger eggs, leave out a teaspoon of the beaten egg.  Too much will make the bread eggy instead of bread like.
  3. Let the mixture sit and thicken for a while as the oven heats up and you prepare the marinade and mayonnaise.
  4. Mix all marinade ingredients in a small bowl or dish and add the chicken. Marinate for 15 to 20 minutes. Mix the mayonnaise and garlic together and set aside.
  5. Place your roll mixture on the prepared tray, it will just sit in a free form shape, you can smooth it out a little if desired. Keep in mind it will rise a little but it is quite a flat roll. Ours sits on the tray approx. 8-9cm in diameter.  Bake for 20mins and set aside to cool a little.
  6. Meanwhile heat the oil in a pan to medium heat and cook the chicken thigh until it's nicely browned and cooked through.
  7. Once the roll has cooled carefully slice through the centre, if it is a little too moist you can pop it in the toaster for a minute or so.
  8. Prepare your salad vegetables then assemble your burger by spreading on the may then adding the lettuce, onion, tomato and cucumber and topping with the chicken.
*We love to make our own mayonnaise but if you are using store bought choose organic whole egg with no added sugar. The macros are worked on our recipe and you can find it in the Dressings and Sauces section
