This dish is quite healthy either way, however you can leave out the cheese for a healthier option. Made from chicken mince and ripe avocado, these burgers make a fantastic quick meal. Avocados contain many healthy vitamins and minerals and can lower cholesterol. They are high in fiber and contain more potassium then bananas.
Insert the knife blade lengthwise and cut around the circumference. Hold avocado in palm of hand and twist off one half to release. The stone is exposed. Carefully tap the stone with the blade of the knife. Twist knife and pull out stone. Remove skin by either peeling it or scoop it out using a large kitchen spoon. Place flesh into a mixing bowl.
Add the chicken mince to mixing bowl.
Add the crushed garlic.
Add breadcrumbs.
Season with salt and pepper.
Using a fork, crush the avocado and mix the ingredients. Chunks of avocado are fine.
Heat up a frying pan or skillet on low heat and add a little olive oil.
Using your hands, pick up some of the mixture, roll into a ball and flatten into patties.
Place on the grill and cook approx 3 to 4 minutes on each side. They should feel firm once cooked.
OPTION ONE: Serve hot with a tomato salsa. (click here for salsa recipe)
OPTION TWO: Place the grilled burgers on a baking dish.
Slice a small piece of mozzarella cheese, and top each burger piece with the cheese.
Place under grill (broiler) until golden brown. Serve immediately.
You can also serve them in a toasted bun for a healthier hamburger option.
Make a batch and freeze the raw patties ready to use.
