Try this flavorful chicken cheeseburger recipe for a healthy twist on a classic favorite. Ground chicken seasoned with flavorful spices, topped with melted cheese, and served on a whole grain bun with fresh vegetables.
To start, combine the ground chicken with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder. Mix until well combined and form into four patties.
Heat a grill or pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken burgers for 6 to 7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty and let it melt.

Add a lettuce leaf, a few slices of tomato, and red onion on top. Place a chicken cheeseburger on each bun and top with the remaining half of the bun.
