These Japanese-style tofu hamburg steaks are soft, juicy, and packed with flavor. Made with ground chicken and firm tofu, they're lighter than traditional beef hamburg steaks but still incredibly satisfying.

Note

  • Don’t drain the tofu too much. A little moisture keeps the patties soft and juicy.
  • Mix the chicken and salt first to help the patties hold together.
  • Let the patties brown before flipping. This creates a delicious golden crust and adds flavor.

Substitutions

  • Ground chicken: Ground turkey also works well.
  • Sake: Replace with 2 tbsp water
  • Ponzu: Mix 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp lemon juice.
  • Daikon: You can simply serve the patties with ponzu and green onions.
