Quail burgers offer a rich, gamey flavor that elevates the classic American burger to new heights. This Paleo-friendly dish is packed with protein and deliciously complemented by fresh toppings and a zesty avocado spread.

Ingredients

• Quail breasts - 250 grams
• Almond flour - 1/4 cup
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Egg - 1 large
• Avocado - 1 medium
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Romaine lettuce leaves - 4 large
• Tomato - 1 medium, sliced

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the quail breasts, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and egg. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the mixture into two patties and set aside.
3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the quail patties and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown.
