Garlic and Rosemary Chicken Burgers

Who could say no to this?
One. Vegetarians. 100% chicken in there.
Two. People who don’t like rosemary. And garlic. Together in food harmony.

If you don’t fall into one of the above categories, I’ve got good news for you. Go to your herb garden. Mine consists of two red and white striped hot cocoa tins. They’re empty at the moment, seeing as I just moved into my new place. Soon they will be filled with little green herb babies. (If I call them plants, I’ll end up killing them. I don’t know how I’m going to keep up a garden, but I’ll try some day.)

Anyways. Back to your herb garden. Now, take a sprig of rosemary. Roll it between your hands a few times. What do you smell? Rosemary, of course. What else would it smell like?

Ingredients

Mayonnaise
1 cup mayonnaise
2-3 sprigs of rosemary, finely chopped
1 clove of garlic, minced

Burgers
1 lb. ground chicken
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of pepper
Handful of baby spinach
4 buns

Preheat the grill (or Mr. George in my case). Mix together the mayo, rosemary, and garlic in a bowl. Grab a bigger bowl and toss in the ground chicken, salt, pepper, and 3/4 of the mayo mix. Using your hands–clean hands–combine ingredients until even. Mold 4 patties and place them on the grill. Cook for 7 minutes on each side.

Spread the remaining mayo on one side (or both sides) of the burger buns. Serve with a few leaves of baby spinach on top.

The end result.
