Steps:

• 1. Make sauce : Whisk all sauce ingredients until smooth. Cover & refrigerate until ready to use.

• 3. The chicken burgers can either be grilled or broiled. If grilling you will need a grill pan as it is a loose mixture. Spray the grill pan, divide meat mixture in half, shape patties once on the pan. Salt and pepper. Place on rack over medium heat on grill and cook for 6 minutes, then flip to other side and cook another 6 minutes or until juices run clear.
• 4. I broiled mine today. Spray broiler pan with non stick cooking spray and divide meat mixture in half and pat out meat mixture in the shape of a patty once on pan. Salt & pepper. Place rack in oven about 4 - 6 inches below heat. Cook for 6 - 8 minutes on one side and flip to the other and finish cooking until juices run clear.
• 5. Butter your bread or bun and toast either on grill or in broiler - I toasted mine right beside the patties. Spread sauce on bottom and top pieces of bread or bun. Add desired condiments. Enjoy! So good!
