ASIAN PORK BURGER



Asian Pork Burger image

I am a big fan of American classics like burgers and pizza, but sometimes you need to push things a little bit and try to come up with something that is a bit different. My wife and I both love Asian food and we love burgers, so one day I got inspired to whip up this recipe. They turned out amazing the first time; you just have to try these. They are so flavorful you can eat them without a bun. I would recommend putting some extra teriyaki sauce on them.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds ground pork
1 small apple - peeled, cored, and chopped
½ red onion, chopped
½ green or red bell pepper, chopped
¼ cup teriyaki sauce
¼ cup apple cider
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Mix the ground pork, apple, onion, bell pepper, teriyaki sauce, apple cider, ground ginger, bread crumbs, black pepper, and soy sauce together in a mixing bowl until evenly combined; shape into 8 patties. Chill the patties in the freezer for 30 minutes so they are not soft when placed on the grill.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Cook the burgers on the preheated grill until firm, hot, and no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Categories     Spicy

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup mayonnaise
1 -2 tablespoon chili sauce, such as Sriracha
1 tablespoon bruised and finely minced lemongrass
1 lime (zest and juice)
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 lbs ground chicken, half dark and half white meat
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 scallions, green and white parts minced
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
4 hamburger buns with sesame seeds, halved and buttered
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons thinly sliced pickled ginger
3 cups napa cabbage, finely shredded
1/4 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • For the spicy lemongrass mayo:.
  • Mix together the mayonnaise, chili sauce, lime zest and juice and lemongrass in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • For the Asian chicken burger:.
  • Combine the chicken, hoisin, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic and scallions in a large bowl. Mix together and form into 4 equal patties about 1/2-inch thick and 4 inches wide. This patty will be a bit wetter than your average patty because of the sauces and flavor in there. Sprinkle each side of the patties generously with salt and pepper. Create a small well in the center of each patty, using your thumb.
  • Cook your patties on the griddle over medium heat until golden brown on each side and 160 degrees F, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Because of the sugar content in these patties, they can burn easily so watch your heat. Let rest 5 minutes. Place your buns on the griddle and toast them.
  • For the slaw:.
  • Add the rice wine vinegar to a mixing bowl and whisk in the sesame oil and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Add the ginger, cabbage and peppers and toss to coat with the dressing. Adjust the seasoning and let sit 20 minutes to let the flavors meld together before serving.
  • For assembling:.
  • Place some of the spicy lemongrass mayo on each side of the buns. Add the chicken patties and top with the Pickled Asian Slaw. Finish with the top bun and serve with additional slaw and mayo on the side.
