Recipe: Italian Chicken Burger

This is a burger I came up with several months ago, based on ground chicken and Italian spices. Dee quickly named it one of her favorite burgers ever! Bonus!

Italian Chicken Burger
~Makes 4 servings



Ingredients:
1 lb. ground chicken
2 Tbsp. dried minced onion
2 Tbsp. dried parsley
1 Tbsp. Mrs. Dash Italian spice blend
2 tsp. salt (we use a low-sodium variety)

1) Mix all ingredients in a bowl until combined.
2) Toss onto a hot surface until cooked (we use a two-sided contact grill for 7-8 minutes).
3) Eat up! :)

We serve open-faced with a slice of Nature's Own Double Fiber bread, throw on some mustard and pickles, and if we're feeling frisky, some low-fat cheese.
