Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 6 pineapple rings sliced 1/2 inch thick
  • 6 slices pepper jack cheese
  • 6 hamburger buns
  • 2 pounds ground chicken
  • 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • optional sliced red onion for topping, chipotle mayo

Instruction

  • Combine the ground chicken, soy sauce, paprika, chili powder, seasoning salt, cumin, and garlic in a large bowl. Lightly mix with your hands and divide into 6 large even balls (or 8 smaller balls for smaller burgers). Form patties, making them slightly thinner in the middle for more even cooking. Refrigerate about 30 minutes (if you have the time).
  • Preheat the grill to medium heat. Coat grates lightly with oil. Grill burgers over medium heat about 6 minutes per side or until done. The burgers will flip easily when they are done. Top with cheese for the last 1-2 minutes of cooking time to melt. Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil to rest.
  • Add the pineapple rings to the grill and cook for about 2 minutes per side.
  • To assemble the burgers: Add a pineapple ring to each burger, top with onion and chipotle mayo or other desired toppings.
