Ingredients
1 lb (0.5 kg)
ground chicken
2 tsp (10 mL)
basil, dried
1 tsp (5 mL)
thyme, dried
1 tsp (5 mL)
oregano, dried
1 1/2 tbsp (25 mL)
sun-dried tomatoes, minced
1/2
onion(s), medium, minced
1/2 cup (125 mL)
oats
1
egg(s), beaten
1
red pepper(s)
2 oz (60 g)
Asiago cheese, grated
1
loaf garlic bread, prepared
Instructions
1
Mix ground chicken, herbs, tomatoes, onions, oatmeal and egg. Shape into four rectangles about ¾ inch (2 cm) thick. With the back of a teaspoon, make a depression in the center of each burger. This helps cook the center of the burger more quickly.
2
Preheat barbecue to medium heat. Put burgers and red pepper on the grill.
3
Cook burgers for about 7-9 minutes per side or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C).
4
Grill pepper until skin is blackened on all sides. Remove pepper from the grill and cool slightly. Peel off skin, remove stem and seeds, and cut pepper in four.
5
Heat garlic bread according to package instructions and cut four slices slightly wider than the burgers. Serve burgers on garlic bread, topped with roasted red pepper and Asiago cheese.
