You know, I have still yet to meet a burger that I do not like. Whether it’s made from ground turkey, chicken, or beef, nothing beats a burger.
I’ve been playing around with a few bruschetta recipes. This last week, I tried to create a bruschetta pasta, a bruschetta casserole, and they both failed. The reality of being a food blogger and working on developing a new recipe means that sometimes they don’t all turn out.
BUT, fear not, because my desire for that bruschetta flavor in something other than, well, bruschetta, has finally worked with these bruschetta chicken burgers.
I’m sure you could make this with ground turkey or maybe even beef, but I find that ground chicken is the perfect pairing to really taste these flavors.
