Instructions

Step 1

Get the boneless fine chicken fillet (breast). Clean and dry the fillet with kitchen towel. To cut the chicken breast into pieces place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic. Use a rolling pin to bang the breast into even thickness to double its original size. Repeat with the remaining chicken.

Step 2

Measure the next 6 ingredients into a sturdy plastic bag or shallow casserole dish then massage the bag or stir to combine. Add chicken and turn pieces (or massage the bag again) until chicken is coated on all sides with marinade. Leave to marinate for 15 minutes or cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours.

Step 3

Heat a large, lightly oiled on the charcoal grilled or barbecue hot plate to a medium-high heat then add marinated chicken. Cook each side for 4-5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (cut the thickest piece to see that there is no pink in the middle).

Step 4

You can cook your burger bun over the grill and spread with a little mayonnaise. According to your taste and choice you can add extras toppings on your burger. You can add fried egg, fried mushroom, fried onions .Assemble lettuce, a cooked chicken breast then tomato and fresh onion slices between bun halves. Season if preferred and serve.
