Caprese Chicken Burgers
Gluten Free
Here's what you need:
1 lb Ground Chicken Breast
1 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 T Chopped Fresh Basil Leaves
3 Garlic Cloves, Minced
4 Sun-dried Tomatoes (Dry Packed), Chopped
2 Egg Whites
1/3 C Brown Rice Krispies, Pulverized
1 t Lemon Juice
1-2 t Red Pepper Flakes
1/2 C Frozen Spinach
1/2 Yellow Onion, Chopped
Warm olive oil in pan--I used cast iron--on medium heat. When pan heats up, add onion, garlic and sun-dried tomatoes. Soften until onions are nearly translucent. Stir in basil, set aside.

| Sautee-ing nicely, and smelling AMAZING. |
Place ground chicken in to a medium sized mixing bowl. Add contents of pan and remaining ingredients. Stir.
 |
| Festive, isn't it? |
Form patties. Cook patties until fluids run clear. When the burgers are cooked, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese.
I served them on toasted buns with a light spread of olive oil mayo, torn romaine lettuce leaves and sliced tomatoes and a side of Food Should Taste Good sweet potato chips. It was a very happy meal.
Behold!
I realize for this to be *actual* caprese, it has to have mozzarella...but I ran out and only had parmesan. Deal with it. :)
Enjoy!
