These burgers are a slightly spicy Southwestern style sandwich. I came up with the idea for these burgers one night when I was feeling really creative, and they were a huge hit with my family.

Ingredients

1 avocado, peeled and pitted
½ cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream
½ teaspoon chili powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 pound ground chicken breast
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers, drained
1 fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded if desired and finely diced
3 green onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
ground black pepper to taste
4 slices Cheddar cheese
4 hamburger buns, split
1 cup shredded lettuce
⅓ cup salsa

Steps:

To make the guacamole, place the avocado, cilantro, sour cream, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a food processor and pulse until smooth..
Mix chicken, canned chiles, jalapeno pepper, green onions, oregano, salt, garlic powder, and pepper in a bowl. Form the mixture into 4 patties.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.
Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill each patty 5 minutes per side, until well done. Move the patties to a cooler area of the grill to keep warm, and top each patty with a slice of Cheddar cheese. Lightly grill the buns while the cheese is melting.
Spread the bottom of each bun with guacamole, and top with 1/4 cup of shredded lettuce and a grilled chicken burger. Spoon 1 tablespoon of salsa on each burger and top with the other half of the bun to serve.

CHICKEN CHILI BURGERS

Chicken Chili Burgers image

This is a recipe I got from Ladies Home Journal. The original recipe calls for chicken cutlets, but I used ground chicken to make it easier. If using ground chicken, just omit the first two steps in the directions.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 3/4 lbs chicken cutlets or 1 3/4-2 lbs ground chicken
1 large red bell pepper, finely chopped
3/4 cup prepared chili sauce
oil, for grill rack
8 slices part-skim sharp cheddar cheese
8 hamburger buns
1 large red onion, sliced
8 lettuce leaves

Steps:

If using chicken cutlets, rinse chicken and pat dry.
Cut into 2-inch pieces and pulse in a food processor until coarsely ground; transfer to a bowl.
If using ground chicken, break apart into bowl.
Now the recipe is the same for both the chicken cutlets and ground chicken.
Season chicken with salt and pepper.
With hands, mix in bell pepper, cilantro and chili sauce until just combined; do not overmix.
Form into 8 one-half inch thick patties.
Preheat grill.
Lightly oil rack.
Grill burgers on rack over moderate heat 5 minutes.
Flip burgers and top each with 1 slice cheese; continue to grill until cooked through, about 5 minutes more.
Meanwhile, grill buns, cut sides down, until golden brown, about 1 minute.
Arrange burgers in buns with onion and lettuce.
