Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce
• ¼ teaspoon poultry seasoning
• ½ cup diced celery
• ¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
• ¼ cup hot pepper sauce
• 1 ½ pounds ground chicken
• 4 leaves iceberg lettuce
• 4 kaiser rolls, split
• ¼ cup light sour cream
• ¼ cup reduced fat blue cheese crumbles
• ½ teaspoon celery salt (Optional)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Stir the sour cream, blue cheese, and Worcestershire sauce together in a small bowl; set aside.

Step 2

Mix the ground chicken, 1/4 cup hot sauce, celery salt, poultry seasoning, paprika, and cayenne pepper together in a mixing bowl until evenly blended. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick patties.

Step 3

Cook the chicken burgers on the preheated grill 6 to 7 minutes until well marked. Spray the uncooked top of the burger with cooking spray, and flip the burgers over. Brush the cooked side with 1 tablespoon hot sauce, and continue cooking until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 4

To assemble the burgers, place a lettuce leaf on each roll bottom. Top with a burger patty, then spoon on 2 tablespoons of blue cheese sauce, and 2 tablespoons celery. Place the top of the roll on top to finish the sandwich.
