ZUCCHINI MUSTARD CHICKEN BURGERS
This low GI recipe has been adapted from a recipe in Michelle Trute's 'cooking with conscience book 2' which focuses on low-fat, low GI, easily prepared food. In making this, I processed the garlic and zucchini and used a small amount of oil to panfry the patties in a non-stick pan, and added a dollop of tzaziki on top of the burgers. Zaar would not allow me to include tzatziki as an ingredient, so I've included Greek yoghurt which is what I'd use if I had no tzatziki on hand. If you haven't tried Greek yoghurt before, it's much creamier than other yoghurts. And if you want a good recipe for tzatziki, I recommend Ravenseyes' Recipe #306901 or Recipe #157176. 160 grams of ground chicken = just over 5 ounces of ground chicken.

CHICKEN AND ZUCCHINI BURGERS
Steps:
- Shred the zucchini using a box grater. Place it in a strainer and sprinkle with some salt. Toss and let sit for at least ten minutes. Then using a cheesecloth, towel, or paper towels - squeeze out the zucchini really well. Make sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible, otherwise, the burgers will not hold together well.
- Combine the remaining ingredients, except the olive oil, with the zucchini and form into patties.
- Skillet: Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minute on each side until the chicken is fully cooked and the outside of the burger is browned.
- Grill: Brush the burgers on both sides with the olive oil. Cook on the grill for 4-5 minutes on each side or until burger is fully cooked. If you sometimes have issues with meat sticking to your grill, then cook these on foil on the grill. Follow the exact same directions but place a piece of foil on the grill and cook the burgers on the foil. This helps prevent sticking and the burgers breaking apart.
- Make fritters: Follow the same directions above but make smaller patties. Cook in a hot skillet with olive oil for 2-3 minutes per side or until chicken is fully cooked.

TURKEY-ZUCCHINI BURGERS
Consider this your dependable, blank-slate turkey burger that will always be juicy and well-seared no matter how you embellish it. Add ground spices, such as cumin or garlic powder; chopped herbs; or Worcestershire sauce or anchovies for umami - or leave the patty alone. With just a swipe of ketchup or mustard, it'll hold its own. Grated zucchini keeps the burgers moist, mayonnaise helps bind and brown them, and salting only on the outside ensures that the meat stays tender. (For a cheeseburger, drape sliced cheese on the patties before the last 2 minutes of cooking and cover the pan.)

Steps:
- Lightly grease a plate with neutral oil and set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together the turkey, zucchini and mayonnaise. Form 4 patties, each about 4 1/2 inches wide (about 5 ounces). Press a small dimple in the center of each patty, then place the burgers on the plate and refrigerate to firm up for at least 5 minutes (or keep them covered for up to 2 days).
- Heat a large (12-inch) cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add about 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet to lightly coat. Generously season the tops of the patties with salt and pepper. Add the patties, seasoned-side down, to the skillet and cook until seared and dark brown, 3 to 5 minutes. (Don't press down; that'll release juices.) Season the tops generously with salt and pepper, then flip and cook until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes, turning the heat down as necessary to avoid scorching.
- Transfer to a clean plate and let rest for at least 5 minutes before building into a burger on the buns with desired toppings and condiments.

Steps:
- In a small serving bowl, combine the mayonnaise with 1 tablespoon mustard. Season to taste with salt and the juice of 1 lime wedge.
- In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine 1 cup parsley with the grated cheese, shallot, garlic, cumin and red-pepper flakes. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the Dijon mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the chicken and gently combine. Form into 4 large, round balls.
- Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high until very hot, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Add the neutral oil or ghee, then add the chicken meatballs, spacing them out in the pan. Use a metal spatula or the back of a wooden spoon to press them until they form 1/2-inch thick patties. Cook without moving for 3 to 4 minutes, until a deep golden crust has formed on the bottom and they easily release from the pan. Flip the patties using a sturdy spatula and cook until cooked through with a nice crust on both sides, about 3 minutes more. If the patties need more time, you can cover the pan and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to avoid scorching. A minute or two before they're done, set 2 slices of Cheddar cheese on top of each patty to melt.
- While the burgers are cooking, in the bottom of a serving bowl, mix the 2 tablespoons lime juice with the remaining 1 teaspoon mustard; whisk in the olive oil until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Add the torn lettuce leaves, avocado, remaining parsley and cubed Cheddar, and toss to coat with the dressing.
- Place the burgers on the buns, slather with Dijon mayonnaise, and top with a little of the greens and avocado from the salad. Serve with the salad, plus the lime wedges and any remaining Dijon mayonnaise on the side.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, in-season zucchini. If you only have access to large zucchini, be sure to scrape out the seeds before using.
- Grate the zucchini using the large holes of a box grater. This will help it to release its moisture and cook evenly.
- Be sure to squeeze out as much excess moisture from the zucchini as possible before adding it to the chicken mixture. This will help to prevent the burgers from becoming too soggy.
- If you don't have any Dijon mustard on hand, you can substitute yellow mustard instead. However, Dijon mustard will give the burgers a more complex flavor.
- To make sure the burgers are cooked through, cook them over medium heat until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Serve the zucchini mustard chicken burgers on your favorite bun with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese.
Conclusion:
Zucchini mustard chicken burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They're packed with flavor and nutrients, and they're easy to make. Plus, they're a great way to use up any extra zucchini you have on hand. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these zucchini mustard chicken burgers a try!
