- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Chilli Powder
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Cumin Powder
- 2 tbsp Oil

- 6 Burger Buns

- 100 g Mozzarella Cheese

Instructions
- 1
Place the chicken in a large bowl. Sprinkle over the paprika, dried oregano, black pepper, salt, chilli powder, garlic powder, and cumin powder, then mix thoroughly until every piece is coated evenly.
- 2
Cover and leave the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes so the spices can penetrate properly.
- 3
Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat until warm but not smoking.
- 4
Transfer the marinated chicken into the pan and cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown and cook through.
- 5
Stir in the chopped onion and sliced red bell pepper. Continue cooking for 4–5 minutes until softened and lightly caramelised.
- 6
Pour in the double cream and gently simmer for 3–4 minutes. Keep the heat moderate so the mixture stays creamy and does not dry out, then remove from the heat.
- 7
Arrange the bottoms of the burger buns in a baking dish. Spread burger sauce over each base.
- 8
Lay the cheese slices on top, followed by the creamy chicken mixture spread evenly across all buns.
- 9
Cover with the bun tops. Brush the tops with melted butter mixed with parsley.

Bake for 6–8 minutes in a preheated oven until the buns are warm and lightly toasted and the cheese has melted.
