Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and sliced
• 4 slices pepperjack cheese
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grate, and position it about 4 inches from the heat source.

Step 2

Mix ground chicken, onion, garlic, taco seasoning, and egg together in a bowl until thoroughly blended. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide chicken mixture evenly and form into 4 soft patties.

Step 3

Cook chicken patties on the preheated grill until meat is no longer pink and juices run clear, 5 to 8 minutes per side, depending on thickness. To serve, place each patty on one half of a hamburger bun, top with a slice of cheese, avocado slices, and desired amounts of jalapeño peppers and salsa. Cover with remaining half of bun.
