Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 500g chicken mince
  • 4 tbsp salsa verde

Salsa Verde

  • 1 bunch parsley
  • 4 tbsp capers
  • juice 1/2 lemon
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 75ml olive oil
  • salt

Slaw

  • 1 sweetheart cabbage
  • 1 large head raw beetroot
  • 100g Greek yoghurt
  • juice 1/2 lemon
  • salt

Instructions

  1. Start by making the salsa verde. Finely chop the parsley and capers. Then, mince the garlic and mix together in a pestle and mortar with the lemon juice, a pinch of salt and olive oil until combined. Alternatively, pulse everything together in a blender.
  2. Add the chicken mince to a bowl along with 4 tbsp of the salsa verde. Squish everything together with your hands until well combined and divide into four patty shapes. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
  3. Preheat a nonstick frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the patties to the pan and fry on each side until golden and cooked through. This should take around 8-10 minutes.
  4. For the slaw use a mandolin to finely grate the cabbage. Peel the beetroot and slice with the mandolin, then place each piece on top of each other and slice into thin straw shaped strips.
  5. Add top a bowl with the Greek yoghurt, a good pinch of salt, a squeeze of lemon and stir well.

Notes

Turkey mince can sometimes be easier to find than chicken mince -- if this is the case, try to choose thigh mince instead of breast for a better flavour.
