Рецепт Chicken Burgers with Spinach and Cheese
With the exception of the occasional chicken nugget and fish stick, my son is vegetarian. I don't know what his problem is with meat and it's difficult to get him to try new things in general.
When he was three, he told me that he'd eat a hamburger when he was four. On his fourth birthday I took him to McDonalds, but he changed his mind.
When he was five, Meredith and I were telling him about the different animals we've eaten: chicken, fish, duck, frog, etc., when he said "I bet you can't eat a cow!" Meredith and I laughed and said "what do you think hamburgers are made of? Mmmmmmmm."
One day I'll get Jacob to eat a burger. Maybe he'll try a chicken burger first. With cheese.
Maybe not.
Chicken Burgers with Spinach and Cheese
- 1/2 orange pepper, finely minced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb (550g) ground chicken
- 150 g (1/2 package) frozen spinach, defrosted and drained
- 3/4 cup shredded old cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a nonstick or cast iron fry pan and fry garlic and peppers until soft (about five minutes).
Transfer pepper and garlic to a bowl and let cool for a couple of minutes.
Combine pepper mixture, chicken, spinach, cheese, bread crumbs and egg and mix thoroughly.
Form into six patties about 1/2 inch thick.
Using the second tablespoon of oil, fry patties on medium-low until cooked through (about 5-8 mintues each side). Use additional oil if necessary.
