Ingredients

• 1 lb ground chicken
• 1 cup spinach (finely chopped)
• 0.5 cup carrot (grated)
• 0.5 cup red bell pepper (finely diced)
• 0.5 cup breadcrumbs (whole wheat, if preferred)
• 1 large egg
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 tbsp dijon mustard
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
• 4 pieces burger buns (whole grain, if preferred)
• 4 pieces lettuce leaves
• 4 pieces sliced tomatoes
• 4 tbsp your preferred burger sauce

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, grated carrot, diced red bell pepper, breadcrumbs, egg, and minced garlic.

Step 2

Add the dijon mustard, paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined. You can use clean hands or a spoon to do this.

Step 3

Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty, about ¾ inch thick.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 5

Place the chicken patties in the pan and cook for 6–7 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown on the outside and have an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

Step 6

While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns in a separate pan or under the broiler for a few minutes until lightly golden.

Step 7

Assemble the burgers: Spread 1 tablespoon of your preferred burger sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Add a piece of lettuce, followed by a cooked chicken patty, a slice of tomato, and the top half of the bun.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Vitamin-packed 'Vita B Chicken Burgers'!
