  • ¼ cup finely chopped red pepper
  • 1 fresno chili pepper, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons parsley
  • ½ teaspoon minced ginger
  • 1 garlic clove, grated

  • 3 tablespoons cilantro
  • 1 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese, divided (optional)

Instructions
  1. Mix chicken breast with all ingredients until combined, do not over mix. Form into four equal patties. Heat a non-stick skillet over a medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Cook patties, about five minutes per side until cooked through. If using cheese, when you flip the patty add the cheese on top to melt.
  2. For the slaw Whisk vinegar, coriander, sugar, sirracha, and sesame oil in a small bowl. In a medium bowl, combine carrot, cabbage, and cilantro. Toss with dressing.
  3. Serve chicken burgers with slaw on a toasted whole-wheat bun.
