Enjoy these flavorful lime chicken burgers with chipotle lime mayonnaise! They are a delicious twist on traditional chicken burgers with a zesty and spicy kick.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds ground chicken
  • Zest of 1 lime
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Burger buns
  • Optional toppings: lettuce, sliced tomatoes, red onion, avocado
  • Ingredients for the chipotle lime mayonnaise:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle powder (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, lime zest, lime juice, minced garlic, chopped green onions, chopped cilantro, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
2
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty.
3
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, lightly grease it with cooking spray or oil.
4
Cook the chicken burgers for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Ensure they are well cooked to prevent any foodborne illnesses.
5
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the chipotle lime mayonnaise. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lime juice, chipotle powder, salt, and pepper. Adjust the chipotle powder to your preferred level of spiciness.
6
Once the burgers are cooked, remove them from the grill or skillet and let them rest for a few minutes.
7
Toast the burger buns lightly if desired.
8
Assemble your lime chicken burgers by spreading the chipotle lime mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Place a chicken patty on top and add your desired toppings such as lettuce, sliced tomatoes, red onion, and avocado.
9
Top with the remaining half of the bun and serve the lime chicken burgers immediately.
