Ingredients

Method

1.In a bowl, combine chicken and sauce. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
2.In a small saucepan, heat vinegar, water, sugar and mustards on high, stirring until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil. Place zucchini and beetroot in separate heat-proof bowls. Divide hot liquid between them. Chill for 15 minutes.
3.In a small jug, combine aioli and parsley, then keep chilled until ready to serve.
4.Preheat a char-grill pan on medium. Char-grill halved burger buns for 1 minute until grill marks appear. Set aside.
5.Char-grill chicken for 3-4 minutes each side until cooked through. Place cheese slices on top of each, then cook for 3-4 minutes.
6.Spread herb aioli over buns and assemble burger with lettuce and pickled vegetables. Serve with chips.
  • Pickled vegetables store well, covered with pickling liquid, in an airtight container in the fridge.
