WW-Friendly Chicken, Zucchini, and Fresh Corn Burgers

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. lean ground chicken
• 1 medium zucchini, coarsely chopped
• Kernels from 1 ear of fresh corn, husks and silk removed
• 1/2 medium red bell pepper, finely diced
• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: whole grain burger buns, lettuce leaves, tomato slices, avocado slices for serving

Instructions:

1. In a food processor, pulse the coarsely chopped zucchini until finely minced. Transfer the minced zucchini to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out any excess moisture.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, minced zucchini, fresh corn kernels, finely diced red bell pepper, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Use your hands or a spoon to mix the ingredients until well combined.
4. Divide the chicken mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty.
5. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the grill grates or pan with cooking spray.
6. Place the burger patties on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the burgers are cooked through and golden brown on the outside. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
7. Once cooked, remove the burgers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
8. If desired, serve the burgers on whole grain burger buns or lettuce leaves, topped with tomato slices and avocado slices.
