• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1/2 small onion, diced
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/2 (1 ounce) package dry taco seasoning mix
• 1 egg
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 4 wheat hamburger buns, toasted
• 4 slices pepperjack cheese
• 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and sliced
• 1/4 cup chopped jalapeno pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat outdoor grill for medium-high heat. Lightly oil grill grate, and place about 4 inches from heat source.
2. Mix the ground chicken, onion, garlic, taco seasoning, and egg together in a bowl until thoroughly blended. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide chicken mixture evenly and form into 4 soft patties.
3. Cook the chicken patties on the preheated grill until meat is no longer pink and juices run clear, 5 to 8 minutes per side, depending on thickness. To serve, place each patty on one half of a hamburger bun, top with a slice of cheese, avocado slices, and desired amounts of jalapeno peppers and salsa. Cover with remaining half of bun.
