Ingredients

• Ground chicken - 400 grams
• Garlic cloves - 2, minced
• Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Ground coriander - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

• Lettuce leaves - 4 large
• Tomato - 1, sliced

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the mixture into two patties of equal size.
3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken patties and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and golden brown.
