These spicy chicken burgers offer a fresh and vibrant twist on a midweek favourite. By blending lean chicken breast with fibre-rich edamame beans and portobello mushrooms, the patties remain incredibly succulent while providing a boost of plant-based nutrition. The gentle heat from the cayenne pepper is perfectly balanced by a cooling, creamy avocado and cucumber salsa, creating a satisfying contrast of textures and temperatures.
Designed for those seeking balanced nutrition without sacrificing flavour, this homemade dish is far superior to shop-bought alternatives. Serve these protein-packed burgers on wholegrain English muffins for a wholesome lunch or dinner that feels indulgent yet light. The addition of the yogurt-based dressing provides a tangy finish that ties all the savoury elements together beautifully.

Ingredients for Spicy Chicken Burgers
60ml lowfat plain Greek yoghurt
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 small red onion, divided
1 ripe avocado, cut into 1-inch chunks
240ml thinly sliced cucumber
1 portobello cap
150g frozen shelled edamame, thawed
2 cloves garlic
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (170g each), quartered
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 whole-wheat English muffins (or wholegrain buns), split
Lettuce leaves (optional)
How to make Spicy Chicken Burgers
Heat oven to 204°C. In a bowl, whisk together yoghurt, vinegar and sugar. Dice half the onion; add diced onion, avocado and cucumber to yoghurt mixture; toss to coat. In a food processor, process portobello, edamame, garlic and remaining half of onion until finely chopped. Add chicken, soy sauce and cayenne. Pulse until chicken is chopped and ingredients are combined, about 12 times. Form mixture into 4 patties. Heat oil in a large oven-safe skillet over high heat. Add patties and cook, turning once, until both sides are browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Place skillet in oven; bake until patties are cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes. Place lettuce, if desired, and patties on bottom halves of muffins; top each with 120ml avocado mixture and remaining muffin half.
