Asian Chicken Burgers topped with a Creamy Broccoli Slaw
The Asian Chicken Burgers is my brother-in-law's favorite dish I make and always requests it! It’s crafted with the classic asian flavors such as ginger, garlic, sesame and soy sauce. The fresh shredded carrots and green onions give it some extra flavor and color to the patty. It's a tender and moist burger packed with flavor but the icing on the cake is the broccoli slaw. Topping your chicken burger with this crunchy sweet slaw brings all the flavors together in one big bite!
