From the Test Kitchen

These burgers take on Asian flair with the addition of a few special ingredients. Fresh ginger lends an aromatic lift to the chicken patties, while thin, crisp slices of bok choy dressed with nutty sesame oil and mirin—a sweetened Japanese rice wine—add delicate crunch. We’re also stirring hoisin sauce into mayonnaise to make a creamy, flavorful spread for our toasted buns. On the side, tangy pickled peppers liven up roasted broccoli.
