Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 ripe avocados
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 4 gluten-free hamburger buns
• 4 leaves lettuce
• 1 large, sliced tomato
• 0.5 sliced red onion
• 4 tablespoons mayonnaise

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Brush the chicken breasts with the oil and spice mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated on all sides.

Step 4

Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear.

Step 5

While the chicken is grilling, prepare the avocado spread. In a medium bowl, mash the avocados and mix in the lime juice until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Slice the gluten-free buns in half and lightly toast them on the grill for about 1-2 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Step 7

Assemble the burgers by spreading 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a lettuce leaf.

Step 8

Place the grilled chicken breast on top of the lettuce, then add a slice of tomato and a few slices of red onion.

Step 9

Spread a generous amount of the avocado mixture on the top half of the bun and place it on the burger.

Step 10

Serve the gluten-free grilled chicken burgers immediately, enjoying the fresh flavors and juicy, tender chicken!
