Ingredients

500g chicken mince
5 spring onions, finely sliced
2 heaped teaspoons golden flax seeds
2 heaped teaspoons sunflower seeds
2 heaped teaspoons pepitas
2 heaped teaspoons ground chia
2 heaped teaspoons ground flaxseed
1-2 tablespoons minced ginger, or adjust to taste
2 teaspoons minced garlic, or adjust to taste
2 tablespoons minced basil or mint, or adjust to taste
2 tablespoons minced lemongrass, or adjust to taste
Sriracha or chilli flakes to taste

Directions

Add all ingredients to a bowl. Wearing food handling gloves, mix by hand until well combined. Roll into 8 individual balls and flatten slightly in the palms of your hands to form burger shapes. Pop into the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up.
Remove from the fridge and cook in a non-stick pan until golden on each side and cooked through. Serve on their own or with a soft green salad - depending on appetite.
