Scrumptious Grilled Chicken Burgers Recipe

I tend to get home from work late, like really late. And as the week edges toward Friday, all of the food I cooked on the weekend is pretty much cleaned out, and we need healthy sustenance. So I’m always looking for something quick and straightforward for weeknight dinners. So last night, I decided to improvise with whatever we had in our fridge/pantries with these grilled chicken burgers. Let me tell you, albeit the improvisation, it was divine!

I love that I got to add all of the ingredients in my fridge and ended up with this scrumptious meal. I know it’s a lot, but you can omit those you don’t have at home. Enjoy!
