Recipe View To assemble the Banh Mi Burgers, place a grilled patty on the bottom half of a sesame seed bun. Top with about 1/4 cup of the chilled pickle mixture. Sprinkle with freshly chopped basil and mint for an extra burst of freshness. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Assembly time: 5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a smear of sriracha mayo to the buns.
If you don't have access to a grill, these burgers can be easily cooked in a skillet on the stovetop. Use a cast-iron skillet for best results.
Feel free to adjust the amount of chili garlic sauce to your preferred level of spiciness.
For a leaner burger, you can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the pork. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
The pickle mixture can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
