How to cook deliciously - Jo's Hawaiian Chicken Burgers

1 . Stage

Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add red onion, garlic, and ginger; saute until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.

2 . Stage

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

3 . Stage

Combine chicken, panko, teriyaki sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add cooled onion and mix gently with your hands until fully incorporated. Create 4 burger patties.

4 . Stage

Grill burgers on the preheated grill until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side, adding provolone slices towards the end of the cooking time so they can melt. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the burgers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Grill pineapple slices alongside the burgers until warm, about 1 minute per side.

5 . Stage

While the burgers are cooking, prepare hamburger buns with a light smear of mayonnaise. Place cooked burgers on buns and top with pineapple slices and jalapeno peppers.
