Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 ripe avocados
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 4 gluten-free hamburger buns
- 4 leaves lettuce
- 1 large, sliced tomato
- 0.5 sliced red onion
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Brush the chicken breasts with the oil and spice mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated on all sides.
Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the avocado spread. In a medium bowl, mash the avocados and mix in the lime juice until smooth and creamy.
Slice the gluten-free buns in half and lightly toast them on the grill for about 1-2 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Assemble the burgers by spreading 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a lettuce leaf.
Place the grilled chicken breast on top of the lettuce, then add a slice of tomato and a few slices of red onion.
Spread a generous amount of the avocado mixture on the top half of the bun and place it on the burger.
Serve the gluten-free grilled chicken burgers immediately, enjoying the fresh flavors and juicy, tender chicken!
