Ingredients

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas (drained)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 lemon zest only
  • 1/2 red pepper diced
  • 1/2 green pepper diced
  • 1 jalapeño seeded and diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pinch kosher salt

Steps

  • 1
    Drain chickpeas and add them to a processor with the eggs. Pulse to combine, but not until smooth. Some texture is good.
  • 2
    Dice peppers, onions, garlic, and jalapenos. Add veggies to skillet along with a few drizzles of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook until soft, about 4-5 minutes.
  • 3
    Add spices to vegetables and cook for another minute until spices are fragrant.
  • 4
    Let veggies cool for a minute, then mix in with egg/chickpea mixture.
  • 5
    Add lemon zest, oats, and bread crumbs to the mixture.
  • 6
    Let mixture sit for 15 minutes so the oats and bread crumbs can absorb the liquid.
  • 7
    Form into 8-10 patties. If the mixture won't stick together well, add a bit more bread crumbs or oats until it's dry enough to stick.
  • 8
    Grill Patties on a very hot grill for about 4 minutes a side. Feel free to add cheese and any other toppings you would normally add to a burger.
