How to Make Low Carb Tandoori Chicken Burgers

To prepare the burgers, combine ground chicken, almond flour, Greek yogurt, Tandoori seasoning, salt and pepper in a large bowl.

Stir well to mix, then separate the mixture into four patties.

Cook on the grill (or if you're inside, on a grill pan) until the center has reached 165F (a probe thermometer is handy for this). Cooking time will depend on how thick you made the patties, but it will be approximately 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine more Greek yogurt (I bought a small pot, used a little for the burgers and the rest for the raita) with de-seeded and chopped English cucumber, mint, and black pepper. Update: I've actually now made a more complex version of this raita - check out out!

Serve the cooked burgers over a bed of lettuce, with the raita. Garnish with lemon slices and a sprig of fresh mint.

These burgers can be prepared in advance - just keep the uncooked burgers in the fridge until required.
