SERVES 1
- Combine the chicken mince, tapioca flour, chilli flakes and salt in a bowl and mix well. Shape into a patty and set aside.
- Meanwhile, for the satay sauce, whisk together the peanut butter, coconut aminos and boiling water in a small bowl. For a runnier sauce, simply add a touch more boiling water until you reach your desired consistency.
- To plate up, start with your burger bun base add a layer of half the cucumber ribbons, top with your chicken patty and a generous dollop of satay sauce, add the remaining cucumber ribbons, then chuck the bun lid on and take a bite. Yum!
- NEXT LEVEL IT: For a lovely addition, mix some finely chopped coriander into the burger patty, then, when assembling the burger, place a few leaves on the patty.
- PRO TIP: Coconut aminos is a sticky, salty, sweet coconut-based condiment that makes a perfect replacement for maple, soy or fish sauce. You can find it in health food stores and online.
