A delicious and versatile recipe for Caprese Chicken Burgers with two serving options: a hearty burger salad or a stacked burger with fresh ingredients. This recipe features organic ground chicken mixed with mozzarella, parmesan, and fresh herbs, creating an explosion of flavors perfect for burger night.
1: In a sauté pan, with olive oil, cook down the onion, garlic, and grape tomatoes until the onion is translucent. Set aside to cool.
2: In a bowl, mix together the ground chicken, parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, coconut aminos, garlic powder, fresh basil, salt, pepper, and the cooled onion and tomato mixture.
3: Shape burger patties to the desired size and flatten to be 1/2 inch thick. Place burgers in the fridge for one hour to set prior to grilling.
4: Fire up the grill and cook the burgers.
5: For the caprese burger salad, fill a bowl with mixed greens and drizzle with Italian dressing. Add sliced avocado, grape tomatoes, and mozzarella. Place caprese burgers onto the salad, drizzle with balsamic glaze, and sprinkle with black pepper.
6: For the caprese burger stacks, when the burgers have one minute left on the grill, top with a slice of mozzarella to melt. In a bowl, mix diced avocado, grape tomatoes, mozzarella pearls, salt, and pepper, and add to the burgers. Garnish with basil, drizzle of balsamic glaze, and lemon juice.
