Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground chicken

  • 1/3 cup panko bread crumbs

  • 1/3 cup chopped red onion

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 lime, zested and juiced

  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 5 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced

  • 1 mango - peeled, seeded, and chopped

  • 4 hamburger buns

  • 4 slices gouda cheese

  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise

  • 1 cup shredded lettuce

Directions

  1. Combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, egg, lime zest, cilantro, garlic, and chipotle in a bowl. Shape mixture into four 1/4-pound patties.

  2. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  3. Meanwhile, stir together chopped mangoes and the juice of the lime in a small bowl; set aside.

  4. Grill chicken burgers on the preheated grill until chicken is no longer pink inside, juices run clear, and burgers show browned grill marks, 5 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  5. About 2 minutes before burgers are done, place hamburger buns onto the grill to toast, about 1 minute per side. About 1 minute before the burgers are done, top each burger with a slice of Gouda cheese, and let melt.

  6. Spread each bun with 1 tablespoon mayonnaise and top with 1/4 cup shredded lettuce and grilled chicken burger. Spoon 1/4 of mango-lime mixture on each burger and top with the other half of the bun to serve.
