Wholesome 30-minute family dinner with chicken, black beans, and lots of veggies - a satisfying, healthy alternative to fast food.
Ingredients:
  • 1 carrot, peeled, finely grated
  • 1 zucchini, finely grated
  • 250g chicken breast mince
  • 400g can black beans, rinsed, drained
  • 2.50 gm ground cumin
  • 1 1/2 tsp chilli paste
  • 130g (1/2 cup) natural yoghurt
  • 21.00 gm fresh lemon juice
  • 2 (about 70g each) wholegrain bread rolls, halved, toasted
  • 2 vine-ripened tomatoes, thickly sliced
  • 150g kale slaw
Instructions:
  • Remove extra moisture from the carrot and zucchini, then combine them in a large bowl with chicken, beans, cumin, and 1 tsp chilli paste. Season the mixture and mix well. Shape it into 4 portions, each forming 2cm-thick patties.
  • Prepare the barbecue or chargrill pan by giving it a light spray with oil. Preheat the pan on high heat. Cook the patties for about 4 minutes on each side or until they turn golden and are fully cooked.
  • In a bowl, mix together the yogurt, lemon juice, and the remaining chili paste.
  • Place a tomato slice on each bread roll half, followed by a patty and a dollop of kale slaw (save the extra dressing for later use). Finish by drizzling the yogurt sauce over the top before serving.
