Cajun Chicken Burger with Spiced Rum Hot Sauce

Cajun Chicken Burger with Spiced Rum Hot Sauce

 

There’s a tale behind this very odd recipe. We were given a bottle of Fairfax handcrafted Chocolate and Walnut Rum. Quite some gift! It was bankrupt stock and the label was damaged, the loss adjusters didn’t want it, but we’re not complaining. However neither of us drink spirits…

We’re not really into sweets as such so Sue cobbled this Cajun Burger gig together and it was really really good. A bit of a treat which we’d certainly not be able to afford without the gifted Rum!


General Ingredients:-

2 Chicken Breasts
Gluten free Bread Crumbs + 2 tea Spoons of Cajun Spice Mix
Gluten free Plain Flour
2 Eggs beaten
2 Gluten free Bread Buns
2 Eggs
Mayonnaise
Bacon
Cheese
Oil to fry

Ingredients for the marinade:-

Cajun Spice Mix
Sweet Paprika
Garlic Powder
Oregano
Salt & White Pepper
Cayenne Pepper
Cumin
Thyme
A hearty slug of Rum

Ingredients for the Hot Sauce:-

The remaining marinade
Hot Sauce
BBQ Sauce
More Rum!
Lime Juice
Caster Sugar

Method:-

(1) Mix all the marinade ingredients and add the Chicken Breasts.
(2) Allow to sit in the fridge covered overnight.
(3) Remove the Breasts from the marinade and pour the remaining marinade into a sauce pan.
(4) Add the remaining Hot Sauce ingredients to the pan.
(5) Dredge the Breasts in Flour, then coat in the whisked Egg then dredge in the Bread Crumbs.
(6) Set your Hot sauce to simmer over a very low heat.
(7) Grill your Bacon until it is crispy and set aside.
(8) Fry the Chicken Breasts gently turning occasionally until cooked through and golden on both sides.
(9) Place the Bacon over the Chicken Breasts and then add a Cheese which will melt.
(10) Place under the grill.
(11) Dress the base of the bun with Mayonnaise and the top with your reduced and cooled Hot Sauce.
(12) Fry the Eggs until the Yoke is still runny.
(13) Build your Burger with the Eggs on top and secure with a skewer.

Served simply with some chips this was outstanding. I’m guessing we’ll never be able to order this in a restaurant and if we could we’d probably have to sell our souls and our Cat to afford it!!!!!

Turkey Thigh Kebabs

We had half a boned out Turkey thigh in the fridge from yesterday so we thought a  Kebab might be fun on a sunny evening.

Ingredients for the Marinade:-

Fish Sauce
Soy Sauce
Salt & Pepper
Garlic Salt
Onion Salt
Chilli flakes
Dried Coriander leaf
Mixed Herbs
A squeeze of Lime juice
Oil


Ingredients for the Kebabs:-

Onions
Tomatoes
Asparagus Mushrooms
Oil

Method:-

(1) Cut the turkey meat into reasonable sized cubes.
(2) Retain the skin to fry later.
(3) Mix the Marinade ingredients in a bowl.
(4) Add the Turkey to the Marinade, stir to coat the meat and place in the fridge for an hour or so,
(5) Thread the Kebab items onto skewers alternation between meat and vegetables.
(6) Drizzle with Oil and grill, turning regularly so that the meat is evenly cooked.
(7) Deep fry the Turkey Skin until it is crispy. Drain and break up.

We served ours on a bed of boiled Rice and Edamame Beans for a bit of colour, with the Turkey Skin crisps scattered over.
