Calories 347kcal
Ingredients
- 2 lbs. ground chicken*
- 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning from a 1.12 ounce packet
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 sweet onion sliced
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 green bell pepper sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 Martin’s Sandwich Potato Rolls
- Optional: guacamole salsa, sour cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat grill pan, griddle, skillet, or outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
- In a large bowl, use your hands to gently combine chicken and seasoning.
- Divide meat into 8 equal patties.
- Drizzle patties with olive oil (about 1 teaspoon). Cook patties about 5 minutes per side, or until just cooked through.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté peppers and onions in about 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and cook until tender (about 8-10 minutes).
- When the burgers are cooked, top each patty with ½ slice of cheddar cheese. Cover loosely with foil and let sit for about 2 minutes (or until the cheese is melted).
- Just before serving, place each burger on a bun and top with peppers and onions, as well as salsa, guacamole and/or sour cream.
Notes
*I like 92% lean ground chicken – anything with less fat than that will result in a dry burger!
