Ingredients
- 500 grams ground chicken
- 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
- 1 large egg
- 50 grams almond flour
- 1 small, thinly sliced red onion
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 medium, sliced avocado
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 60 grams mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, almond flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Divide the chicken mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties about 1/2-inch thick.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 4
Once the skillet is hot, add the chicken patties and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Step 5
Top each chicken patty with a slice of cheddar cheese and cover the pan to let the cheese melt. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Step 6
While the cheese is melting, prepare the buns by using large lettuce leaves.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by placing each chicken patty with melted cheese onto a lettuce leaf. Add slices of red onion and avocado on top of each patty.
Step 8
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and dijon mustard. Spread this sauce over the top of the avocado slices.
Step 9
Top each burger with another lettuce leaf and serve immediately.
