Usually, if we have extra chicken breast we need to use up and we want a quick and easy dinner, we grill the chicken and have grilled chicken burgers. I was getting a little bored with that and decided to try making ground chicken by using my food processor. The results were great, it came out delicious. It is quick, easy and a little more flavorful then grilled chicken. It is one of my new favorites. I like to eat it on a whole wheat bun with lettuce and tomato.
Ingredients:
2 Cups chopped chicken
1/2 cup fresh mushrooms
1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
Directions:
1. Place chicken, mushrooms and garlic into large food processor. Process until chicken is ground finely. Put ground chicken mixture into a bowl and add basil, onion powder and cottage cheese. Mix until combined. Form into patties and cook any way you like. I usually use my George Foreman grill and grill it for about 4 minutes on each side.
