How to Make Cheesy Chicken Burger W Corn Carrot Relish

  1. Spray a medium nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, until softened.
  3. Add 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color) and sauté for another 3-5 minutes.
  4. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl.
  5. Add 1.5 lbs ground chicken, 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper to taste. Gently combine.
  6. Cover and chill the chicken mixture for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours).
  7. While the chicken chills, prepare the relish: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup frozen corn, 1 cup shredded carrots, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons white vinegar, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro, and a pinch of salt.
  8. Bring the relish to a low simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves (about 5 minutes).
  9. Cover and cook for 2 minutes. Remove the lid and cook for 1 minute more, or until the relish has thickened slightly.
  10. Set aside to cool slightly.
  11. Spray a grill or grill pan with nonstick spray and preheat to medium-high heat.
  12. Form the chilled chicken mixture into 6 patties.
  13. Grill the patties for 8-10 minutes per side, or until cooked through and browned.
  14. Serve the burgers on buns with a generous spoonful of the corn and carrot relish on top and a few leaves of lettuce underneath.
