BBQ Chicken Burger

Servings 4

Ingredients
 

Burgers

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground chicken
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Other Toppings

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil + more for grilling if using indoor grill
  • 1/2 large red onion cut into thin slices
  • BBQ Sauce
  • 4 Cheddar Cheese slices
  • Cilantro

Instructions

  • Transfer the chicken, Worcestershire sauce, and 5 spices to a bowl. Without overmixing the chicken, incorporate all the ingredients together evenly. Let it marinade for 30-1 hour in fridge.
  • While the chicken is marinading, take a skillet and over medium heat melt the butter, add the olive oil and the onion slices. Spread the onions over the pan and let them start cooking. After about 5 minutes, turn heat to medium low and occasionally stir. They will cook for about 25-30 minutes.
  • Prepare indoor or outdoor grill over medium heat.
  • Form the chicken mixture into four 1/2" thick patties. Grill burgers over medium heat until cooked through, 5-7 minutes per side. When the burgers are on their second side of cooking top with cheddar cheese slices to melt.
  • To assemble the burger: Place chicken patty (cheese side up) on bottom bun, then add caramelized red onions, BBQ sauce (as little or much as you want), and a few pieces of cilantro.
