These ground chicken burgers get a tropical kick from grilled pineapple rings, sweet mango slices, and fresh jalapeño for heat. A quick sriracha mayo ties the sweet and spicy flavors together, making this a satisfying warm-weather dinner that balances fruity brightness with a savory, charred patty.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground chicken
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons green onion, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 slices fresh pineapple, 1/2-inch thick rings
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and sliced
  • 2 jalapeños, thinly sliced
  • 4 hamburger buns, split
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 4 leaves lettuce
  • 0 cooking spray, for grill grates

Method

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, garlic, ginger, green onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about 3/4-inch thick.

  3. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.

  4. Grill the chicken patties for 5 to 6 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the juices run clear.

  5. While the patties cook, brush the pineapple rings with vegetable oil and grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until caramelized and lightly charred.

  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and sriracha until smooth.

  7. Toast the buns, cut-side down, on the grill for 30 to 60 seconds until lightly golden.

  8. Spread the sriracha mayo on both halves of each bun. Layer the bottom bun with lettuce, a chicken patty, a grilled pineapple ring, mango slices, and jalapeño slices.

  9. Top with the bun lid and serve immediately.
