Chicken Fajita Burgers (paleo, gluten free, whole30)

Ingredients

1 lb ground chicken
1/4 cup diced bell pepper
1/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup chopped spinach
1/4 cup chopped mushrooms
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/4 tsp salt

Method

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and sauté the pepper, onion, mushrooms, and spinach for 3-4 minutes.
    1. In a small bowl, mix all the spices together  to create your fajita seasoning (you could use a pre-made packet as well!)
  2. In a large bowl, add the ground chicken, sautéed veggies, and spice mixture. Mix everything together with a spatula then form burgers.
  3. Makes 5-6 burgers.
  4. Add olive oil to your skillet heated over medium heat, add the burgers, and cook for 7 minutes on each side. I always use a meat thermometer to check the temp! If it’s not quite there, stick them in the oven at 400F for a few minutes.
  5. Store in the fridge for 4-5 days or freeze for a few months
