Chicken and courgette burgers

A light, tasty main with rosemary and paprika roast potatoes, recipe on blog. I added turmeric, optional, and this is a lovely way to give children vegetables.

INGREDIENTS FOR 4

500 G CHICKEN BREAST

500 G COURGETTES

1 TEASPOON TURMERIC

CHIVES

2 TABLESPOONS BREADCRUMBS

1 GARLIC CLOVE

SALT

PEPPER

EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL

I wash courgettes and trim chicken membranes and central bone.

I chop chicken and process.

I mince coarsely.

I coarsely grate courgettes.

I cook courgettes with oil and garlic about ten minutes until dry, then cool.

I add to minced chicken.

I mix salt, pepper, turmeric and chives.

I add a couple of tablespoons breadcrumbs.

I press into 4 serving rings, or shape by hand, on small parchment squares for easy transfer.

I lightly oil tops.

I heat oil in a non-stick pan, add burgers and remove rings.

I cook gently on both sides, covering briefly before turning. Cook thoroughly inside: chicken must be well cooked.
