The Low Carb Kitchen: Chicken Pesto Burgers

To make these low carb I used pork rind crumbles instead of regular bread crumbs. The pesto keeps them from getting too dry.

The ingredients:

1 lb ground chicken

1/4 C pesto

1/4 C pork rind crumbs

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

The recipe:

Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix by hand until well combined.

Form into 4 patties about 1/2 in thick.

Cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes on each side.

Notes:

Place all small indention in the burger to keep it from bubbling up.

I garnished with cheese and a pesto mayo made with mayo, 1 tbsp pesto, sprinkle of crushed red pepper and Italian Seasoning.

You can make ahead and freeze raw then thaw out when ready to make.
