Ingredients

1 pound ground chicken
2 green onions, white and green parts, thinly sliced
1 chipotle pepper, canned in adobo sauce, chopped (seeds removed for less heat if desired)
2 tablespoons almond flour
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Burgers can also be cooked on the stove in a skillet or broiled in the oven. Cooking time will vary depending on the method used. Cook until no longer pink in the center or an instant-read thermometer reads 165 F.
Place ground chicken, green onions, chipotle pepper, almond flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix with a large spoon or your hands to combine.
Add shredded cheese and mix again to distribute cheese throughout.
Divide chicken mixture into 4 portions and pat into patties about ½-inch thick. Wetting your hands with a little water will make this easier.
When the grill is hot, cook burgers 5-6 minutes on each side or until no longer pink in the center or an instant-read thermometer reads 165℉.
Remove burgers from the grill, serve on buns, lettuce wraps, over a bed of greens, etc. with desired toppings.
