Chicken Blue Burgers
3/4 pound ground chicken (preferably a mixture of white and dark meat)
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
1 cup dry unseasoned bread crumbs
Vegetable oil cooking spray
4 poppy seed rolls
Blue Onion Sauce
Red cabbage slaw (optional)
Using your hands or a wooden spoon, mix together ground chicken, egg,
cheese and bread crumbs in a large bowl, until ingredients are evenly
distributed. Form into 4 patties of equal size.
Lightly spray a large skillet with cooking spray. Pan-fry burgers over
medium heat, flipping once, until cooked through, about 4 minutes on
each side. Do not press down on burgers with a spatula or they will
become dry.
Serve burgers on poppy seed rolls and top each with 1 tablespoon Blue
Onion Sauce and red cabbage slaw, if desired. Serve additional sauce on
the side. Makes 4 servings.
BLUE ONION SAUCE: In a small glass bowl, whisk together 1 clove garlic,
minced, 2 tablespoons chopped Vidalia OR other sweet onion, 2
tablespoons crumbled blue cheese, 1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt and sea
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. |
