Chicken Teriyaki Burgers with Caramelized Onions & Grilled Pineapple
Ingredients
- 3 large onions, sliced into strips
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 3 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
- 1 cup panko crumbs
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- 2 Tbsp cilantro, chopped
- ½ tsp red chili flakes
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 1 Tbsp grated ginger
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 4 slices fresh pineapple
- 4 burger buns
Instructions
- Begin caramelizing the onions: in a skillet over low heat, saute onions in oil until softened and dark brown in colour, 1-2 hours. The longer the better!
- In a large bowl, combine chicken, teriyaki sauce, panko crumbs, egg, cilantro, red chili flakes, garlic, green onions, ginger and Worcestershire sauce. Using your hands, form into 4 patties, place on a plate, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour*.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill burgers about 5 minutes per side until cooked all the way through. Place cheese on top of patties and cook for a minute longer until cheese is melted.
- Meanwhile, grill pineapple slices, about 3 minutes per side, until charred.
- Serve patties on burger buns, topped with a slice of pineapple and a scoop of caramelized onions.
