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
- 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!) - In a large bowl, add the ground chicken, sautéed veggies, and spice mixture. Mix everything together with a spatula then form burgers.
- Makes 5-6 burgers.
- 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.
- Store in the fridge for 4-5 days or freeze for a few months
