Are you ready to grill some burgers?
Instructions:
First, slice your onions thinly. Heat a pan on the stove on medium heat. Add avocado oil and the onions. Cook on low heat for 20 minutes, occasionally stirring until the onions turn golden brown and are caramelized and sweet.
(*Note that onions shrink as they caramelize so you need to use more onion than you may think.
Add the roasted hatch chiles and simmer 5 minutes. (*Because hatch chiles can be very spicy, I dice mine into small pieces.)
In a bowl, add your ground chicken, an egg, panko, and spices. Mix well. Preheat your grill to 350 degrees.
Is panko gluten free?
Unfortunately, panko is not gluten free. The good news is there are a few companies that make gluten free panko like Ians and Schar. Just make sure the label says gluten free!
Shape the burgers into patties.
Place on the grill and cook until the burgers have an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. Remove from the heat and top with the caramelized onions and hatch green chiles.
Best ways to cook burgers?
We are huge burger fanatics! We typically grill our burgers on the grill, it means a lot less clean up! You can also cook burgers by baking them in the oven or cooking them stovetop. You can even get a small kitchen grill to cook your burgers. Any way you cook them, CK Mondavi will have a wine to pair!
How do you keep chicken burgers moist?
I keep chicken burgers moist by adding egg and bread crumbs. This helps hold moisture in the burger better.
Can you make this burger recipe not spicy?
It is easy to turn down the heat on these ground chicken burgers by using mild roasted green chiles instead of roasted hatch green chiles.
