Jalapeño Chicken Burgers
Beef up your next burger with these juicy ground chicken patties, stuffed with onion, garlic, jalapeño, and a spicy blend of fresh cilantro, cumin, paprika, and red pepper. Cool down with a dollop of cold, creamy guacamole. Ground turkey will substitute seamlessly for the ground chicken here if you’d like a little variation.
