The recreation of the chicken burger, using a lean grind of meat and a hugely flavorful—but surprisingly low-calorie—spiked mayo to deliver on the promise of a truly healthy burger you can happily indulge in. Chicken burgers are not dry or tasteless, especially when they are smothered in a fresh homemade mayonnaise style dressing. Chicken burger with sun-dried tomato aioli is a pretty combination!
Summer just screams tomatoes and chicken So figured why not put them together in a burger. And crown it with some more basil for good measure.
