Ingredients

  • pinch cayenne pepper to taste
  • 0.5 cup celery diced
  • 1.5 pounds ground chicken 
  • leaves iceberg lettuce 
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika 
  • tablespoon pepper sauce hot
  • 0.3 teaspoon poultry seasoning 
  • 0.3 cup reduced fat cheese crumbles blue
  • 0.3 cup cup heavy whipping cream light sour
  •  kaiser rolls split
  • 0.3 teaspoon worcestershire sauce 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • mixing bowl
  • grill
  • kitchen thermometer

Directions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Stir the sour cream, blue cheese, and Worcestershire sauce together in a small bowl; set aside.
  2. Mix the ground chicken, 1/4 cup hot sauce, celery salt, poultry seasoning, paprika, and cayenne pepper together in a mixing bowl until evenly blended. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick patties.
  3. Cook the chicken burgers on the preheated grill 6 to 7 minutes until well marked. Spray the uncooked top of the burger with cooking spray, and flip the burgers over.
  4. Brush the cooked side with 1 tablespoon hot sauce, and continue cooking until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  5. To assemble the burgers, place a lettuce leaf on each roll bottom. Top with a burger patty, then spoon on 2 tablespoons of blue cheese sauce, and 2 tablespoons celery.
  6. Place the top of the roll on top to finish the sandwich.
