Chef's tip
Ground chicken is often leaner than ground bison and can dry out more quickly. When browning it, add a little oil if needed and keep the pan juices unless the recipe says to drain them. Cook just until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
1 tbsp garlic-infused olive oil
1 tbsp fresh turmeric, peeled and finely grated
1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground coriander
¼ tsp ground black pepper
¾ tsp fine sea salt
1 large egg
¼ cup cassava flour
2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped

For the lemon-herb drizzle

2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
¼ tsp fine sea salt

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground bison, garlic-infused olive oil, grated turmeric, grated ginger, cumin, coriander, black pepper, salt, egg, cassava flour, and 2 tablespoons parsley. Mix with your hands until just combined — stop as soon as no dry streaks remain.
