Tonight we tried a recipe from Gwyneth Paltrow cookbook It's All Good. Over the weekend I made my Korean Pork Tacos for C's birthday and we've been on an Asian kick. The Thai chicken burgers ended up being really, really good. 

We also made a couple changes. I used some coconut milk in the ground chicken and it made the burgers extra juicy and flavorful. I highly suggest it. I also added scallions and a pinch of curry powder. Below is the original recipe:


Serves: 4


Ingredients:
1 pound ground chicken (preferably dark meat)
2 garlic cloves, very finely minced
2/3 cup finely chopped cilantro
2 shallots, very finely minced
1 teaspoon very finely minced red chili (or more or less, however hot you like it)
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons neutral oil (such as canola, grapeseed, or safflower oil)


Directions:
1. Thoroughly mix chicken with garlic, cilantro, shallots, red chili, fish sauce, salt, and pepper. Form mixture into 4 burgers, each about 3/4-inch thick.
2. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Rub each burger on both sides with a bit of oil and grill for about 8 minutes on the first side and another 5 minutes on the second, or until nicely marked and firm to the touch.
