Method

  • 1. Heat a frying pan or BBQ grill to medium heat and add 1 Tbsp oil. Season chicken breasts and place in frying pan or BBQ grill. Cook chicken breasts, turning them for 6 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Set chicken aside to rest.

  • 2. Place canned kernels in a large bowl. Add jalapenos, diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, coriander, mint, peach or nectarine, lime juice, remaining olive oil and salt to taste. Stir well to combine and set aside.

  • 3. Assemble burgers by topping bottom of each toasted hamburger bun with a lettuce leaf, then place a piece of chicken, a slice of tomato, some corn salsa and the top of the bun.

  • TIP: Used tinned peaches or nectarines if fresh aren't availble.
