    Ingredients

    • 1 1/2 pounds ground light and dark meat chicken
    • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
    • 1/3 cup fresh breadcrumbs
    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
    • 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
    • 4 slices fontina cheese (optional)
    • 4 whole-wheat hamburger buns

    • Sliced tomato
    • Sliced red onion
    • Lettuce
    • Mayonnaise

    • Directions

    1. Preheat outdoor grill (or grill pan, if cooking indoors) to medium-high heat.

    2. In a large bowl, combine chicken, salt, pepper, mustard, breadcrumbs, lemon juice, and chives and form into four 6-ounce patties.

      These were delicious and easy to make--And they tasted a lot better than a turkey burger! We used gruyere instead of fontina cheese, and it was delicious. Do NOT make the baked potato poppers that are featured on the same episode--We made them and they were awful!
