Make the chicken burgers by adding the ground chicken turkey, shredded sweet potato, bbq sauce, onion, garlic, cumin, salt and pepper to a large bowl. Mix with your hands until evenly combined. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into 1/2 inch patties.

Grill over medium-high heat (around 400 degrees F) for 5-8 minutes per side or until burgers are cooked through and a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F. During the last few minutes of cooking the chicken burgers, add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each burger patty; cover the grill for about 1 minute while the cheese melts.

Place the burgers on buns, top with onion, lettuce and drizzle with extra bbq sauce and top with onions. Serve immediately. Great with sweet potato fries or fresh fruit!

Spinach and Chicken Burgers with Lime Recipe

1-1.2 lbs ground chicken

spinach

breadcrumbs

shallot (finely diced)

Dijon mustard

garlic powder

tsp salt

tsp black pepper

Olive oil (for drizzling and shaping)

Lime or lemon juice (to top)

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the burgers.

Prepare the baking sheet

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and drizzle some olive oil over it to prevent sticking and add moisture.

Mix the burger ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, thawed and drained spinach, unseasoned breadcrumbs, finely diced shallot, egg, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Use your hands to mix all ingredients thoroughly until well incorporated.

Shape the patties

Lightly oil your hands with olive oil and form the mixture into 6 equal-sized burger patties. Place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle a little more olive oil over each patty.

Bake the burgers

Bake the patties in the preheated oven for about 18 minutes. Halfway through baking, carefully flip each burger to ensure even cooking.

Broil for browning

After baking, place the burgers under the broiler for approximately 2 minutes to achieve a nicely browned and slightly crispy exterior. Watch carefully to prevent burning.

Serve

Remove from the oven and let the burgers rest briefly. Serve your spinach chicken burgers topped with a squeeze of lime or lemon juice. They pair wonderfully with a fresh salad or inside buns with your favorite burger toppings.
