Składniki

1 pound 93% lean ground chicken breast (or ground turkey breast)

1 teaspoon olive oil

1/2 cup finely chopped onion

1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper

2 cloves garlic

2 scallions (finely chopped)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil (or 1 ½ teaspoons dried basil)

4 ounces 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 ½ cups marinara sauce (homemade or store-bought)

Wskazówki

Cook the veggies until they begin to soften. Add garlic, turn off the heat, and stir for 30 seconds. Remove to a small bowl and let cool slightly.

In a large bowl, combine remaining burger ingredients (do not add the mozzarella cheese or marinara sauce). Add the cooled onion/pepper mixture and use your hands to mix well. Form 4 evenly sized patties.

Preheat your oven’s broiler. Place the patties on a lightly greased baking pan and broil for 4-5 minutes per side, until the burgers are no longer pink in their centers.

Remove the patties from the oven and cover each with a thin layer of marinara sauce, reserving the remaining sauce to spread on buns/rolls for serving. Next, divide the mozzarella cheese evenly among the patties. Return the pan under the broiler for about 1 minute—just long enough for the cheese to melt. Serve immediately on your choice of bread or sandwich buns with remaining marinara sauce if desired.
