Teriyaki Chicken Burgers image

My family wasn't that thrilled with the taste of turkey burgers and I was watching my intake of beef. I started experimenting with ground chicken in my burgers and was mildly surprised with the outcome. The family likes these better than beef burgers! I usually make this when I bring the chicken home from the market. It makes for a quick meal on a weeknight. It just doesn't get any easier! These are served on Belle's® Hamburger Rolls which are totally off the hook!

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound ground chicken (preferably white meat)
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 grinds cracked black pepper
1 jalapeno pepper, diced
3 cloves garlic, pressed
5 tablespoons teriyaki sauce (such as Mr. Yoshida's®), divided

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Combine ground chicken and pineapple in a large bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Mix jalapeno pepper, pressed garlic, and 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce into the chicken mixture. Continue mixing with your hands until evenly combined.
  • Cook burgers on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes per side, basting the burgers with remaining 3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
