### Ingredients
- 4 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
- 250ml buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons peri-peri sauce (adjust to taste)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 100g breadcrumbs
- 4 burger buns
- 100g mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 100g red cabbage, finely sliced
- 1 large carrot, grated
- Fresh coriander, for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, peri-peri sauce, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and ensure they are well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for a more intense flavor.
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Once marinated, remove the chicken from the buttermilk and dip it into the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coating. Place them on the prepared baking tray.
- Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the chicken is baking, prepare the slaw. In a medium bowl, mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, red cabbage, and grated carrot. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Once the chicken is ready, slice the burger buns and toast them lightly, if desired.
- To assemble your burgers, place a piece of baked chicken on the bottom half of each bun, top with a generous serving of zesty slaw, and finish with fresh coriander. Place the top half of the bun on before serving.
And there you have it! A delicious Buttermilk Peri-Peri Chicken Burger with Zesty Slaw that is flavorful, crispy, and perfect for any occasion. Enjoy your culinary creation with friends and family!
