Juicy Chicken Burgers Recipes

Steps:

• Be sure to use ground white meat chicken. If you're buying your ground chicken from the grocery story, ring the bell and ask them if they've got what you're looking for or if they'll grind some chicken breast for you. You can also grind it yourself in a food processor. Remove all excess fat and cartilage from boneless, skinless chicken breast and tenders, cut into 1-inch cubes and pulse until coarsely chopped.
• Use fresh bread crumbs. It only takes a few extra minutes. Remove crusts from good bread or don't remove the crusts, tear into chunks and pulse in a mini chopper or food processor. Make a giant batch and freeze them so next time you can skip this step.
• Place chicken in a mixing bowl. Using a rubber spatula, fold in milk, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, onion, cayenne, salt and pepper. The mixture will be very wet which means it will be a tiny bit icky forming it into patties but forge ahead. Place remaining 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs on a dinner plate or cookie sheet. Divide chicken meat into 4 or 5 piles (you decide which portion size is best for you) and using your hands, shape into patties. Coat each patty with bread crumbs. Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and fry patties until golden and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Wash hands thoroughly before and after handling uncooked chicken. Spray indoor grill with fat free cooking spray and let in run five minutes while you are prepping your burgers.
• Mince onions, celery, bell pepper, and garlic for about 20 seconds in food processor (DO NOT Puree). The mixture will seem a bit too moist and soggy, but that's OK. The moisture will keep your burger juicy, although you will lose some of it (along with excess fat) during cooking. Flatten ground chicken by hand on a cutting board, add seasoning, bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, and vegetable mix. Blend chicken mixture by hand until consistent. Form a ball, then flatten it out again and form into four tight patties.
• Season one side of patties with Mrs. Dash. Place all patties seasoned side down on indoor grill, then season the other side. Close your grill and cook about 8 minutes until firm and light brown with dark grill marks.
• When burgers are done, place a slice of fat free cheese on top of patties (if desired) and continue on the grill until cheese melts. My wife put her burger together with fat free Mayo. I tried a swizzle of fat free ranch dressing. Both were terrific!

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high.
• Pulse chicken, apple and onion in a food processor until coarsely ground. Shape into four patties, season with salt and pepper, then lightly coat both sides of patties with nonstick spray.
• Grill burgers 4 minutes per side.
