Tandoori Chicken Burger

I hope you looked at my video where I highlighted some Essential Spices to stock your pantry with. This Tandoori Chicken Burger is a smoky and spicy patty served on a homemade burger bun with fresh lettuce, pickled red onions and a creamy curry mustard.

For this recipe I created a tandoori spice blend. My condiment of choice is a simple curry mustard that is the perfect compliment for this burger.
