Chicken Fajita Burgers
1 1/3 pounds ground chicken
1 tablespoons ground chipotle chili powder, a palm full
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Several drops hot sauce
1 tablespoon grill seasoning (I used McCormick's SpicyMontreal Steak Seasoning)
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1 small or medium onion, chopped
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped (I added this to Anthony's burger, but not mine)
salsa verde or tomatillo salsa...to taste/sight
tortillas/wraps (I used TJ's habanero lime wraps)
Combine chicken, chipotle powder, cilantro, hot sauce, onion, peppers, green salsa, and grill seasoning. Score and divide meat into 4 sections and form big patties, 1-inch thick. Drizzle patties with extra-virgin olive oil and cook 6 minutes on each side or until meat is firm and cooked through.
To serve, fold wrap creatively around burger and secure with a toothpick...or a small kabob skewer if that's what you have handy...
These were pretty amazing. Definitely keep some extra green salsa on hand to put on the burgers though--it makes them better! I think next time I might try a fresh tomato slice on top...perhaps some homemade guacamole...
(sorry I wasn't able to get a decent shot of them...but they were yummy!)

It looks delicious! I am totally into wrapping things,.. easy for us, the peeps who are not so good with the cooking thing.
Don't like chicken patties though, but I am sure a breast fillet will be equally great... no?
