Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground chicken
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 1 tsp Smoked paprika
• 0.25 tsp Ground cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 4 pieces Gluten-free burger buns
• 1 large Avocado, sliced
• 4 tbsp Spicy mayonnaise (gluten-free)
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 1 large Tomato, sliced
• 2 tbsp Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, gluten-free breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and fresh cilantro. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties about 1/2-inch thick.

Step 3

Heat a skillet or grill over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, cook the patties for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Ensure they are fully cooked through.

Step 4

While the patties cook, toast the gluten-free burger buns lightly on the skillet or grill for 1-2 minutes until slightly golden.

Step 5

Assemble the burgers: Spread 1 tablespoon of spicy mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and the cooked spicy chicken patty.

Step 6

Top the patty with a few slices of avocado, and place the top half of the bun on the burger.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your Gluten-Free Spicy Chicken Burger with a side of your choice!
