You can make these burgers with ground chicken, turkey, veal, pork or beef. Top with lettuce, Golden Onions or thickly sliced sweet onion rings and pickled hot peppers. Serve on slices of focaccia bread or flat Portuguese buns.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup pasta sauce
  • 1 sweet green pepper, finely diced
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated  romano cheese or Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp dried Italian herb seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 lb ground chicken

Preparation

Golden Onions

In microwaveable bowl, stir pasta sauce with green pepper; microwave at High, stirring after 1 minute, until green pepper is tender-crisp, about 2 minutes. (Or cook in saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring, about 4 minutes.) Let cool.

In large bowl, beat egg with pasta sauce mixture; stir in bread crumbs, cheese, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Add chicken; mix until combined. Shape into four 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick patties. (Make-ahead: Wrap, separated by waxed paper, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours or freeze for up to 1 month; thaw in refrigerator.)

Place on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside and digital thermometer inserted sideways into centre reads 175°F (80°C), about 15 minutes.
