Take a break from beef and try our super-moist chicken burger recipe. We used grated zucchini, minced jalapeño and Parmesan cheese to make a great-tasting burger with a kick!

We’ve tested a zillion different methods for cooking chicken and turkey burgers that aren’t dry, but always fail because the meat is so lean. Once we discovered that the grated zucchini helps to retain the moisture during the cooking process, we were unstoppable!

Enjoy these burgers on a bun, or go the low-carb route and use a lettuce wrap instead. Either way, you and the family will have a great go-to burger that’s appropriate to serve year-round.
