Instructions

First, prepare the mixture for the chicken burgers. Transfer the canned meat to a bowl and mix together with one egg, spices and breadcrumbs.
Let it rest for a while to let the breadcrumbs soak up the water.
Then preheat the oven to 200 °C.
Form the meat mixture into balls and roll them in corn crumbs. Place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper, gently press them together and put them in the oven for about 30‑40 minutes.
Slice the burger buns and lightly fry the halves.

Now it's time to serve.
Put a spoonful of light mayonnaise and chicken on the bottom half of the bun. Then add the chopped lettuce, tomatoes and finally the other half of the bun, again spread with mayonnaise.
Well you can enjoy, so good taste!
