4 servings

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 2 cups shredded zucchini, squeezed dry
  • ½ cup chopped green onions
  • ½ cup bread crumbs
  • 2 teaspoons Asian chile paste (such as sambal oelek)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ½ teaspoon fish sauce
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
  • 2 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 hamburger buns - split, toasted and buttered
  • 4 lettuce leaves, or to taste
  • 4 tomato slices, or to taste
  • 4 red onion slices, or to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Mix ground chicken, zucchini, green onions, bread crumbs, chile paste, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, fish sauce, ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Form into 4 patties and place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, flip, and continue baking until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Whisk mayonnaise, chile-garlic sauce, mustard, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon pepper together in a bowl.
  • Spread sauce onto cut sides of hamburger buns. Stack lettuce, tomato, and onion onto one side of each bun. Top vegetables with a burger and complete sandwiches with remaining bun halves.
