Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Onion, chopped
1 Garlic clove, minced
1 Can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 Tsp paprika
1/2 Tsp cumin
1 Tsp onion powder
1/4 Tsp coriander
Salt and pepper to taste
3 Tbsp flour + more for rolling (can be gluten-free)

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 4 minutes, until translucent and caramelized. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let it cool. Transfer to a food processor. If you don't have a food processor, mash using a fork or potato masher. Add the chickpeas, paprika, cumin, onion powder, coriander and salt and pepper. Pulse for 2 minutes or until you have a thick batter. Add flour and pulse for 1 more minute. Divide the batter in 4 balls for large chickpea burgers or 8 balls for chickpea sliders and transfer to a floured surface. Shape the patties. Heat a greased skillet over medium heat. Add the chickpea patties and cook for 3 minutes per side. Top with whatever burger toppings you like!

Time 16m

Yield 6-8 patties, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

19 ounces chickpeas
16 ounces tofu, chopped and marinated overnight in soy sauce and grated ginger
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup dried parsley
1 egg
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon black pepper
1/2 tablespoon salt
olive oil

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients into a bowl.
  • Using a large fork or spoon, mash the ingredients together. (Alternatively, a blender can be used.).
  • When it's mashed enough so you can mold the mix into patties without it falling apart, do so! I made patties about the size of my palm, but they can be any size you want.
  • Heat up a frying pan with some olive oil in it. You might need to add more or less depending on the size of the pan, and how many patties you've made.
  • Carefully place the patties into the pan. Heat them for about 3 minutes, or until they're brown on the bottom. Flip them over, and go for 3 minutes again.
  • When they're done, take them off carefully with a spatula! Serve them up with some mozzarella cheese on whole-wheat bread. I think they taste best after microwaved for 30 seconds.

HOMEMADE GROUND CHICKEN-CHICKPEA BURGERS



Homemade Ground Chicken-Chickpea Burgers image

This burger lends itself to lots of options and variety, all of which are delicious! Even my beef-loving husband loved it and ate every last bite. The best part is the complex texture, moistness, and unique (though not weird...) taste. We enjoyed them with some zucchini fries (fresh from our new backyard veggie garden). Optional: toast buns with a slice of your preferred cheese. Feel free to dress your burger to your liking; I chose Swiss cheese, ketchup, tomatoes, and spinach (my husband opted for American cheese, ketchup, and mustard). Make sure to test patties for doneness prior to consuming!

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ cups water
½ cup dry quinoa
1 (15.5 ounce) can chickpeas
8 ounces ground chicken
½ cup egg whites
½ cup minced beets
½ cup oat bran
¼ cup minced onion
3 prunes, minced
1 tablespoon minced poblano pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground chile pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Mash chickpeas roughly in a bowl. Add cooked quinoa, chicken, egg whites, beets, oat bran, onion, prunes, poblano pepper, salt, chile powder, cumin, and black pepper. Mix well. Form into 6 equal-size patties. Wrap in aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and any juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
