Zubereitung von Sweet Sour Chicken Pita Burgers
- Combine 2 cloves garlic, 2 green onions (chopped), 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1 tbsp grated ginger, 1/2 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned), and 2 tbsp soy sauce in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
- The mixture should resemble a paste. Scrape into a large bowl and set aside.
- In the food processor, finely chop 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts in batches until the texture resembles ground chicken.
- Add the chopped chicken to the bowl with the herb mixture. Stir in 1/2 cup breadcrumbs and 1 large egg. Gently mix with your hands until well combined.
- Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- While the chicken chills, whisk together 2 tbsp pineapple juice and 1 tbsp cornstarch in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken patties for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and browned.
- Alternatively, cook the patties on a Foreman grill according to manufacturer's instructions (approximately 10 minutes).
- In a saucepan, combine 1/4 cup ketchup, 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar, 1/4 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned), 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tbsp sugar or Splenda. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- Pour in the pineapple juice and cornstarch mixture. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens (about 1-2 minutes). Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Toast the pita breads and split them lengthwise.
- Fill each pita with crisp lettuce (or your favorite toppings).
- Top with a chicken patty and generous spoonfuls of sweet and sour sauce.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy!
