1 1/2 pound ground chicken 95/5
1 small chopped red pepper about 1/2 cup
1 chopped poblano pepper green bell would work as well
1/2 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup bread crumbs – optional use if your ground chicken is too moist
Chili Seasoning
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
Avocado Salsa
1 large ripe avocado, smashed
1/2 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon chili seasoning you made for burgers
Instructions
- Combine all chili seasoning ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Combine all burger ingredients and shape into 4 patties. (if you find your ground chicken a little on moist side, add 1/4 to a 1/3 cup of bread crumbs).
- Season the top of your burgers with 3/4 of the seasoning mix. Saving the remainder for your avocado salsa.
- Heat grill pan to medium high heat and cook burgers for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through and meat thermometer reaches 165 degrees.
- Combine mashed avocado, lime and remaining seasoning. Taste. More salt, pepper, spices?. Cover and store in fridge until ready to use. The lime will keep it nice and green.
- Top burgers with avocado salsa and serve with or without your favorite bun
