These Chili Lime Chicken Burgers are a copy of the ones you can buy at Trader Joe's. Instead of guacamole, I just put slices of avocado on top. They are citrusy and spicy. What more could you ask for?!

  • Prep: 10 mins
  • Cook: 10 mins
  • Yields: 4 Servings

Ingredients

1 pound ground chicken

2 green onions, chopped

¼ cup red bell pepper, chopped

2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped

2 teaspoons garlic, minced

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 lime, cut in half

4 slices pepper jack cheese

4 buns, toasted

For the guacamole

1 avocado

garlic powder

salt & pepper

Directions

1Combine chicken, green onions, bell pepper, cilantro, garlic, salt, red pepper flakes and juice of half a lime in a large bowl. Mix until thoroughly combined, then form into 4 patties and spray each side generously with non-stick spray.

2Heat a large grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill burgers for 3-4 minutes a side, or until cooked all the way through. Place a slice of cheese on top of each burger, then cover with a large pot lid, and allow to melt for about a minute. Remove burgers to a plate, tent with foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Place each burger on a toasted thin bun, then top with guacamole.
