Caprese Stuffed Burgers
| 1 pkg. | PERDUE® Fresh Ground Chicken (1 lb.) |
| 1 small | tomato, seeded and sliced |
| 3 tbsp. | chopped shallots |
| 2 tbsp. | fresh basil, chopped |
| 2 tsp. | Worcestershire sauce |
| 1/4 tsp. | salt |
| 1/8 tsp. | black pepper |
| 4 | chunks low-moisture mozzarella (1/2-ounce) |
| 4 | hamburger rolls |
| Mozzarella slices, optional | |
| Tomato slices, optional | |
| Lettuce leaves, optional | |
| Fresh basil leaves, optional |
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the ground chicken, tomato, shallots, basil, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Mix well but lightly; don’t crush the meat.
Form 4 burgers and, with your thumb, make a pocket in the center of each burger. Insert a chunk of mozzarella into the pocket, then shape the burgers to enclose the cheese. Chill burgers 10 to 15 minutes.
TIP: Chilling before grilling helps to firm-up the meat and cheese so the cheese doesn’t melt before the meat is cooked through.
Heat a grill or grill pan to medium high heat. Grill the burgers about 5 to 8 minutes on each side or until no longer pink in center. Burgers are done when they feel firm to the touch and a meat thermometer inserted in the center reaches 170°F.
Warm or lightly grill the hamburger rolls. Place a warm burger on each roll and top with the mozzarella slices, tomato slices, lettuce and basil leaves if desired.
