Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 1 lb Ground Chicken
- 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Pepper
Guacamole
- 2 ripe Avocados
- 2 tbsp Lime Juice
- 1/4 cup Cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 tsp Salt
Buns
- 4 Hamburger Buns
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Form the Patties: Divide the chicken mixture into equal portions and shape them into patties. Aim for a thickness of about half an inch to ensure even cooking.
- Grill the Burgers: Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Prepare the Guacamole: While the burgers are cooking, mash the ripe avocados in a bowl. Mix in lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt to create a creamy guacamole.
- Assemble the Burgers: Once the patties are cooked, place them on hamburger buns and generously top with guacamole. Add any additional toppings you desire, such as lettuce, tomato, or onion.
Notes
- Don’t Overmix: Mix the chicken mixture just until combined to keep the burgers tender.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh avocados and herbs make a significant difference in the taste of your guacamole.
- Chill the Patties: Allowing the patties to chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before cooking can help them hold their shape.
- Monitor the Heat: Cook over medium heat to prevent the burgers from burning on the outside while remaining raw inside.
- Experiment with Toppings: Try different toppings like pickles, cheese, or spicy sauces to elevate your burger.
