Recipes Main Dishes Burger Recipes Chicken Chipotle Chicken Burgers 4.7 (3) 3 Reviews 1 Photo These juicy, smoky and spicy chipotle chicken burgers are topped off with pepper Jack cheese, refreshing pico de gallo, and creamy chipotle mayo. Only use 1 or 2 chipotle peppers if you like things a little milder. Use fresh store-made pico de gallo to save time.

Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings Chipotle Mayo: 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from chipotle peppers 1 teaspoon lime juice 1/8 teaspoon salt Burgers: 1 pound ground chicken 4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced 1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander 1 tablespoon butter, melted 4 hamburger buns 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro 4 slices pepper Jack cheese 1/2 cup prepared pico de gallo Directions Stir mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon adobo sauce, lime juice, and the 1/8 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl; set aside. In a medium bowl, combine ground chicken, chipotle peppers, queso fresco, salt, and ground coriander. Form into 4 patties and place on squares of parchment paper. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to help patties firm up. Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Brush skillet with butter and toast buns, cut side down, until lightly browned, about 1 to 2 minutes; set aside. Heat oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Fry burgers until chicken is no longer pink at the center and juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 3 minutes per side. Turn heat off. Place cheese slices over patties and cover with a lid, letting the residual heat melt the cheese. Spread chipotle mayo on bottom buns and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon cilantro. Add chicken patty and top with pico de gallo.
