Chicken Avocado Burger – diced fresh avocado mixed with ground chicken or turkey, cilantro, and spices. An easy, healthy, and flavorful 30-minute meal!
Ingredients
FOR THE BURGERS:
1 pound ground chicken
2 cloves garlic — minced
1/3 cup whole wheat Panko bread crumbs — use almond meal or roughly ground oatmeal to make gluten free
1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce — finely diced*
1 teaspoon adobo sauce — from the can of chipotle peppers
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 large ripe avocado — peeled, pitted, and cut into 1/4-inch chunks
FOR THE CHIPOTLE YOGURT SAUCE:
3/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons adobo sauce — from the canned chipotle peppers above, or more to taste
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt — or more to taste
FOR SERVING:
4 whole wheat hamburger buns
Optional: lettuce — or spinach, thinly sliced red onion, tomato, prepared salsa, nonfat plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
Instructions
Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium (about 375 degrees F).
In a large bowl, gently combine the chicken, garlic, breadcrumbs, diced chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, salt, pepper, and cilantro until evenly combined. Carefully fold in the avocado. Shape into 4 patties.
Oil the grill, then cook burgers on each side for about 5 minutes, until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
While the burgers cook, prepare the chipotle yogurt sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, adobo sauce, and salt. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Serve on top of the burgers, with additional toppings as desired.
Recipe Notes
*DO NOT use the whole can of adobo peppers—just one single pepper (or feel free to add two if you want more of a kick), along with the sauce in the specified amount. This ingredient can be found in the Hispanic section of most grocery stores.
