Pesto Chicken Smash Burgers

You probably know by now I have a bit of an obsession with pesto and it is probably one of my favourite things to come out of a jar-haha! I really wanted to see if it would work as a smash burger and OMG, these are sooo tasty!! The chicken smash burgers are so naturally juicy and packed with flavour, they're topped with melted mozzarella and work so well with the homemade pesto mayo, peppery rocket and sliced tomato! I can't wait to see what you think of these for a speedy protein packed dinner! Feel free to use red pesto too if you prefer!!

10/10 love these!! We used turkey mince instead of chicken as that's what we had in. It was super simple and easy to make and full of flavour! These will definitely be a regular for us!

Wow! Super quick to make, swapped out the brioche bun for a sesame bun and rocket for lettuce. Served with crisps, probably not the healthiest companion but I didn't fancy anything else. Tasted amazing. Have one left for tomorrow which I may just dice with some salad and make a wrap for lunch. Absolutely delicious

I made two versions for dinner tonight: (1) chicken mince and (2) Quorn chicken fillet version (for me - pictured). I served all of the burgers with crispy red onions and sweetcorn (unfortunately I had no salad in). I love pesto and this dinner hit the spot.
