500 g chicken mince
salt and freshly ground black pepper
(¼ cup quantity) chopped parsley
2 cloves garlic, crushed

Preparation

Tear the bread into small pieces and soak in milk for 10–15 minutes.

Squeeze the bread well to remove excess liquid, then place in a bowl with the minces, salt and pepper, parsley, garlic, lemon zest and parmigiano and mix well. Divide into 10 and form into burger shapes. Roll each burger lightly in flour.

Place the burgers on a hot barbecue and cook for 6–7 minutes, rotating once. Turn over and cook for a further 5–6 minutes, rotating once.
