Peking chicken Burger

These are great. I have made them three times so far and they turned out good. They are a bit sloppy but I made them about two hours ahead, put them in the fridge and they firmed up. The last time I made small open burgers. I had the family over and they loved them. They were really pretty too.

I made these earlier this week and they were a complete mess. I subbed ground turkey for the chicken, ommitted the garlic for personal preference and reduced the sesame oil to 1 teaspoon. Even with those changes the recipe should not have been affected so badly. It was a soupy mess. I had to add close to 2 cups of bread crumbs to get them dry enough to form a patty and even then they were still very delicate. If the flavor would have been there I might have given this a couple more stars and worked with it in the future but the flavor didn't deliver. Probably due to the addition of all the extra breadcrumbs. I wonder if this recipe is one of the casualties of the change over from Zaar to Food as I'm the first to review it since the transition. If the chef is still around and messages me that the recipe is accurate or needs correcting I may re-try in the future and change my review but as it stands right now this recipe was a failure.

I loved these burgers. My first time in making a burger without using beef. Only change I made was to add some chopped up scallions and some chopped up water chestnuts. They made a great addition! Thanks for posting this!!

For my first chicken burger, this was a really great burger. My only issue was that it was a little too sweet for me. I would cut back on the hoisin. Also I thought it needed some heat. Maybe some ground red pepper flakes? Anyways it was easy to make and I will be making these again!

omg, these are the most delicious non-beef burgers i have ever eaten!!! i had ground turkey breast in the fridge, so that's what i used. i didn't have quite 3T of hoisin sauce left in my bottle, i cannot imagine how much better these would taste with the full amount. i left out the onions as i don't eat them, and added a couple more cloves of garlic. and i didn't have breadcrumbs handy, so used a handful of rolled oats instead. so good. i really think i could eat these every week. thank you so much for sharing, i'm glad i finally got around to making these.

These burgers were awesome. I didn't have hosin sauce so I used an Asian sauce from Trader Joe's and a little BBQ sauce.

My husband and I love this alternative to regular old burgers. The flavor and moistness are outstanding! They're now becoming a staple in our house, as they're quick and tasty. I use ground turkey and 4 garlic cloves instead of 3 cloves. Update: For a little bit of fusion, try the tahini sauce by jovigirl. I had some left over from the roast asparagus and tried it as a condiment on the turkey burgers tonight. It was actually pretty good!

Wow - these are beyond good. One change I had to make is to add two pieces of soft bread broken apart into small pieces. This was necessary because the burgers (I used turkey) just weren't holding together. I also added basil and used half green onions, half red onion. I broiled in the oven at various temps to get them cooked through (375 - 450). I've never made burgers so moist and flavorful. Thanks so much!

These were not bad. I also used egg beaters and I used quick cooking oats instead of breadcrumbs. Maybe I added too much oats and eggs since it felt like it needed more spices. I'll retry it again sometime.

These burgers are fantastic! I actually used ground turkey because I can't get chicken at my local grocery store and used Egg Beaters in place of the egg. The hoisin sauce gave these burgers a wonderful flavor. Thanks for a great recipe, Connie!

I love Asian flavours. I added some toasted sesame seeds to this and served it as a burger with no overwhelming condiments (like strong mustard) to take away from the Asian flavours. Thanks connie.

Nice and simple like Connie said. I think some cilantro would be a good addition next time, and as we ate these with veggies, I would have liked a sauce, but couldn't think what sort of sauce I should make!
