My last name is Berger - the jokes that have ensued for my 25 years of life are never ending.... Feel free to come up with a couple that we haven't heard before!
Yes, we love burgers, just in case you were wondering!
To tell you the truth, I have never made a chicken burger. Nor have I played with ground chicken... It looks even more gross than raw chicken.... But! I was determined.
And, it wasn't that bad! It was like making meatloaf, with chicken. And, it was a quick process - under 30 minutes!
1/4 cup Cooked Quinoa - you could use bread crumbs, but I am staying away from gluten for Lent!
Add 1 spoonful of Coconut Oil to a cast iron skillet. When it is hot, add your burgers. Cook thoroughly - remember, this is chicken and not beef! No pink. No pink. No pink!
I covered mine with a lid and flipped after about 5 minutes. It will depend on the thickness of your patty - so I can't tell you an exact time... Sorry! When you press the middle of the burger, if it is firm, it's done. If not, cover and cook a little longer!
I served mine with caramelized onions a top. It was wonderful! You can find my tutorial for making the onions HERE.
This makes an easy, healthy Paleo dinner. Would be great with roasted sweet potatoes or brussel sprouts!
