CHICKPEA BURGERS

Prep Time: 15 mins

Cook Time: 15 mins 

 

Ingredients:

• 2 15 oz cans organic chickpeas, drained and rinsed

• ½ med-sized red onion, diced small

• 1 red bell pepper, diced small

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 stalks green onion, thinly sliced

• 1 TBLS avocado oil or olive oil

• 1 tsp ground cumin

• 1 tsp paprika

• ½ tsp pepper

• 1 tsp salt

• ¼ tsp chili flake (optional)

• ¼ cup chickpea flour or flour of your choice

 

Instructions:

• Heat half oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Sauté red onion and red pepper for 3-5 mins until vegetables are lightly browned. Add garlic and toast for one minute. Remove from heat and add to a food processor.

• Place all ingredients into a food processor (alternatively, use a potato masher). Process until everything is incorporated, making sure not to over-process. The mixture should still be somewhat chunky and not too smooth. Taste the mixture and season with additional salt if necessary.

• Pro tip: Place the mixture in the fridge for 30 mins to make handling easier.

• Use a 4oz scoop and form patties with hands.

• Heat the other half of the oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Cook patties for 5-7 mins each side until there is a golden brown crust on each side.

• Alternatively, cook chickpea burgers in the air fryer at 400 degrees for 20 mins, flipping halfway through. Lightly spray the inside of the air fryer with oil to prevent sticking.

• Prepare your meal prep dishes with your favorite sides and a serving of Chickpea Burgers over the top. Allow dishes to cool in the refrigerator before adding a lid. 

• Add Plant Bomb Garlic Tahini as a finishing sauce to deliciously tie everything together!
