Categories     burgers, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ounce dried porcini or shiitake mushrooms
4 ounces Parmesan (about 1 cup grated)
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Pinch salt
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken or turkey breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil or butter

Steps:

  • Put the dried mushrooms in a bowl, and cover with hot water.
  • Cut Parmesan into chunks; put it in container of food processor with garlic; process until grated (if Parmesan is already grated, just pulse a couple of times).
  • Add the pepper, salt and chicken or turkey and pulse the machine on and off until the mixture is chopped but not pureed.
  • Squeeze excess water from mushrooms, but do not wring them completely dry, and add to the machine. Pulse two or three more times, until mixture is more or less combined but, again, not pureed.
  • Put olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet, and turn heat to medium. Wait a couple of minutes, then shape chicken mixture into 8 small burgerlike cakes. Cook 3 minutes a side, or until nicely browned. Do not overcook; when burgers are firm, they are done. Serve hot or at room temperature.

These burgers are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I usually make a big batch of chicken on the weekend and then use it to make these burgers during the week. They're a quick and easy meal that the whole family loves.

I've made these burgers several times now and they're always a hit. They're so easy to make and they're always juicy and flavorful. I love that I can use whatever kind of mushrooms I have on hand.

I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms, but I really liked these burgers. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the mushrooms were surprisingly flavorful. I served them with a side of roasted potatoes and they were a hit!

These burgers were really easy to make and they turned out great! I used a food processor to chop the mushrooms and onions, which saved me a lot of time. I also used a store-bought sauce, which made the recipe even easier.

These burgers were a bit too rich for my taste. The chicken was juicy, but the combination of the cheese and the sauce was a bit overwhelming. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a lighter cheese, like mozzarella or feta.

I thought these burgers were just okay. The chicken was a little dry and the mushrooms were bland. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of mushroom, like shiitake or oyster mushrooms.

These burgers were really good! I used a combination of white and cremini mushrooms, and I added a little bit of garlic and onion powder to the chicken mixture. The burgers were juicy and flavorful, and the buns were nice and soft.
