MACROS (per burger, makes 4)
Calories: 660 | Protein: 37g | Carbs: 17g | Fat: 49g | Fiber: 2g
Split it into 3 bigger burgers and you're at ~50g protein each.
INGREDIENTS
Patties:
1 lb ground chicken thigh
1/2 cup small-curd cottage cheese (2%)
1/2 cup crushed pork rinds
1/2 cup almond flour
1 large egg
2 tbsp gochujang
1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
3 green onions, sliced
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Kimchi Bacon Jam:
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 cup kimchi, drained and chopped
1 tbsp gochujang
2 tbsp brown sugar substitute
1 tbsp rice vinegar
Gochujang Mayo:
1/2 cup mayo
2 tbsp gochujang
1 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tsp toasted sesame oil
To Build:
Low-carb buns or lettuce, sliced cucumber, sesame seeds, green onion
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix all patty ingredients just until combined. Shape into 4 patties and chill 20-30 min so they hold.
Crisp the bacon, pour off most of the fat, add kimchi, gochujang, sweetener, and vinegar. Simmer 5-7 min until jammy.
Whisk the mayo ingredients together.
Cook patties in a skillet over MEDIUM heat (not high - the almond flour and gochujang scorch fast), 5-6 min per side to 165F.
Build: mayo, cucumber, patty, kimchi bacon jam, sesame seeds, green onion. Done.
