Lynn's Ground Chicken Southwest Burger

 

1 lb Ground chicken or turkey meat
1/2 cup Shredded zucchini
2 tbl Canned chopped green chilies
1/2 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup Prepared salsa
2 tbl Chopped green onions
2 tbl Chopped fresh cilantro
1 tbl Plain nonfat yogurt
4 x Hamburger rolls, split and toasted
    Lettuce leaves

 Method :
1. Combine chicken, zucchini, chilies, cumin, salt and pepper in bowl.
Shape into four 1/2-inch-thick patties.
2. Coat large nonstick skillet with vegetable cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Add patties; cook 5 minutes per side. Combine salsa, green onions, cilantro and yogurt in small bowl. Arrange each burger on the bottom half of a roll. Top each with 3 tablespoons salsa mixture, lettuce and remaining roll halves.
Makes 4 servings.
Read the label carefully to look for chicken or turkey breast meat that contains about 97% lean meat. The chicken mixture is very moist, but it cooks up nicely.
