Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large (approximately 8 oz) Boneless chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 medium Avocado
- 4 units Lettuce leaves
- 1 small Tomato
- 0.25 unit Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
Instructions
Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
Cut the large chicken breast in half horizontally to make two thinner pieces.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the chicken breasts with the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Place the chicken breasts onto the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the avocado by cutting it in half, removing the pit, and scooping the flesh into a bowl.
Mash the avocado until smooth and season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Slice the tomato and red onion into thin rings.
Once the chicken is cooked, allow it to rest for a few minutes.
Assemble the burger by taking two lettuce leaves as the bottom bun, spreading one tablespoon of mayonnaise over them.
Layer the grilled chicken breast on top, followed by a generous spoonful of mashed avocado.
Add tomato slices and red onion rings, then cover with another two lettuce leaves.
Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly grilled chicken burger!
