Seasoned ground chicken patties are topped with salsa and wrapped in a tortilla for these fun burgers.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup shredded zucchini
- 2 tablespoons canned diced green chiles, drained
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound uncooked ground chicken or turkey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking oil
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1 green onion, chopped (2 tablespoons)
- 2 tablespoons snipped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon plain low-fat yogurt
- 4 7- or 8-inch flour tortillas, or 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
- Lettuce leaves
- Combine zucchini, green chiles, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add ground chicken; mix well. Shape chicken mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties.
- In a large skillet cook patties in hot oil over medium heat about 10 minutes or until no longer pink (165 degree F), turning once.
- Meanwhile, combine salsa, green onion, cilantro, and yogurt. Place each burger on the upper half of a flour tortilla. Add lettuce and salsa mixture. Fold the bottom half over burger; fold the sides to the center, overlapping slightly. (If using hamburger buns, line bottoms of the toasted buns with lettuce leaves; add the burger, salsa mixture, and bun tops.) Makes 4 servings.
