1tbspblackening, Cajun, Creole, or taco seasoning*see note
tbspglucomannan or flouroptional
salt to taste
pepperto taste
Chipotle Mayo
1/4 cupmayonnaise
1chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
Instructions
Make sure your ingredients are drained well before mixing together so as not to end up with a mixture that is too wet to form patties.
Gently mix all the ingredients except flour or glucomannan in a bowl.
Shape into patties (if you'll put this on buns, shape to the size of the buns you're using)
Optional: coat the outside in either flour or glucomannan to crisp up the outside a bit and prevent sticking or falling apart.
In a skillet add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, heat to medium-high (about a 6 on a 10 point range)
Add patties, cook until browned, flip, brown second side, then set aside on a plate for assembly or eat as is.
Chipotle Mayo
In a mini food processor, blend mayo and chipotle pepper till smooth.
Notes
You can season these with any Mexican blend spices or even taco seasoning. The blackening season that I mix for my cooking is: 1/4 cup paprika, 1/4 cup garlic powder, 1/4 cup chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 2 teaspoons salt.
