½ cup baby spinach, finely chopped

2 tbsp coconut flour (optional, acts as a binder)

1 tbsp avocado oil (Plus more for grilling or frying)

2 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp onion powder

1 tsp sea salt

½ tsp black pepper

Juice of one lime

1 small avocado, diced into small chunks

Butter letter leaves (optional)



Instructions:

  • 1.) Prepare either a grill or a grill pan and set to high heat. Add avocado oil to the grill pan if using.

  • 2.) Mix the ground chicken with the seasonings, spinach, coconut flour, lime juice, and avocado oil until well combined.

  • 3.) Very gently fold in the avocado slices, being careful to not smash them.

  • 4.) Form the chicken into 4-5 burgers, spacing out the avocado to make sure it’s evenly dispersed.

  • 5.)Grill the burgers on the grill surface (using extra avocado oil if frying in a pan) for about 5 minutes on each side, or until internal temperature reaches 165 F.

  • 6.) Top with optional Tessamae’s Avocado Ranch Dressing and serve in lettuce cups like a bun, or enjoy the burgers on their own.
