Chicken Burgers with Special Sauce

Here's another old one from my files.  They make for mighty fine sandwiches and are well suited for those days when you need something quick.

 

Chicken Burgers with Special Sauce
 

For  Every TWO Burgers:

 

CHICKEN BURGERS
8 oz chicken or turkey breast meat, cut into chunks
1 green onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
4 saltine crackers, finely crushed
Coarsely ground black pepper
No-stick cooking spray
2 English muffins, split and lightly toasted
Several fresh spinach leaves, stemmed and washed
2 to 4 tomato slices

 

SPECIAL SAUCE
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pinch sea salt
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1 Tablespoon minced cornichons or dill pickles
2 teaspoons capers, rinsed and chopped
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard


Place chicken or turkey in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground. Add green onions, Worcestershire sauce and crackers; pulse to mix. Form into two 1-inch-thick patties and sprinkle both sides generously with pepper.

 

Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, cook the patties for 4 minutes on each side or until firm and opaque.

 

Meanwhile, make special sauce: Mash garlic and salt to a paste in a small bowl. Stir in yogurt, pickles, capers and mustard.

 

Prepare sandwiches on English muffins with burgers, special sauce, tomato slices and spinach leaves.

 

Mrs. G's note: These burgers freeze well.   

Strive for respect instead of attention. It lasts longer.

@RespectLife  You're very welcome, Respect, and thank you for the compliment.  I'm glad if my recipes come to good use for someone -- I sometimes think they don't appeal to many.  Diff'rent strokes, and all that.  Woman Indifferent
