This recipe is from my husband’s cousin Kim. We enjoyed some great grilled chicken burgers when we visited a while ago in Winnipeg. We don’t get together that often, but when we do all the secret childhood/teenage stories come out and we laugh until our bellies hurt.

I added a few things to Kim’s original recipe.  In addition to using ground chicken I added small cut up chunks of chicken, this gave the burgers a great texture. For this recipe I used dark chicken meat, but chicken breasts will also work but may be slightly drier.  These grilled up nicely on the BBQ,  just be sure to spray the grill with cooking spray so the burgers don’t stick. Keep it lean, or serve up with some melted cheese and top with your favourite burger toppings such as tomatoes, lettuce, peppers, pickles etc.

I like to make burgers ahead of time and store in my convenient Shape+Store Burger Master to form perfect burger shapes. These burgers also freeze very well so double the batch and keep some on hand in the freezer.

      Yes the burger shape and store container is perfect to make the burgers, store them and freeze them. Great container to transport burgers to a BBQ.

    I have done them without grilling as well. Sometime I just pan sear them and finish off baking in the oven. They’re great either way!

    Hi there! Great recipe! You mentioned that the burgers can be cooked in the oven…what would the oven and timer settings be?

      Hi Anamit, 350 F oven until internal temperature is 170 degrees, depending on how thick you make the burgers about 25 minutes.
