Chicken burgers with macadamia nut and lemon

Ingredients

  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 spring onions, sliced
  • 1 small handful coriander leaves, chopped
  • zest from 2 lemons
  • 3 egg whites
  • 500 g minced lean chicken breast
  • 50 g roughly chopped macadamia nuts
  • 100 g tinned water chestnuts, drained and chopped

Method

Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Add freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Mix together well, then with wet hands, form into small patties. Heat a non-stick frying pan and spray with a little olive oil. Cook over medium heat until burgers are golden and cooked through. This should take 3-4 minutes on each side. Serve hot or cold with vegetables or salad.
