THE CHICKEN SLIDERS

This recipe  has leeks, which contain flavonols and compounds that are beneficial for heart health, and can lower our risk of cancer.

Ingredients:

16 oz organic ground chicken 
1 leek, chopped white part only (yields 1/2 cup)
1 TBSP fresh thyme leaves 
2 tsp minced or fresh pressed garlic
1 & 1/2 tsp salt

1-2 tsp coconut oil for the pan 

You'll likely only need one leek to produce the 1/2 cup chopped leek. Slice it right where the white starts to turn green. Throw away the green part and the tip. Slice the white portion half, length-wise, to make it easier on the cutting board. Chop until small or fine slices of onion.

Pluck the thyme leaves off of approximately 10 stems. This should produce the necessary 1 TBSP measurement of fresh thyme. 

Mix all ingredients together, and form into circular burgers. Heat a pan on the stovetop, with about 1-2 tsp coconut oil. Cook the burgers on medium to low heat, to ensure they are cooked through.

Serve in a butter or romaine lettuce wrap, gluten-free wrap, or even on a bed of rice. Top with sliced avocado or your desired topping.
