Units of Measurement:
main
2 Pound ground chicken, preferably white and dark meat
1 Cup Parmesan cheese
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
As Needed Black pepper
1 Cup Mayonnaise
2 Tablespoon prepared pesto
3 Roma tomatoes
1 red onion, sliced
As Needed baby spinach

Steps

  • 1

    Line a baking sheet with plastic wrap. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, the Parmesan, the Worcestershire, and a few grinds of black pepper. Wet your hands with cold water, and use them to mix the ingredients.

  • 2

    Divide the meat mixture in half, then form six 2-inch patties out of each half. Place the patties on the baking sheet, cover with another sheet of plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

  • 3

    Combine the mayonnaise and pesto in a small bowl and whisk together. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.

  • 4

    When ready to cook, start the Traeger grill on Smoke with the lid open until the fire is established (4 to 5 minutes). Set the temperature to 300F and preheat, lid closed, for 10 to 15 minutes.

  • 5

    Arrange the chicken patties on the grill grate and grill, turning once, until the patties are cooked through (165F), about 30 minutes.

    To serve, put a chicken patty on the bottom of a slider bun and top with a dollop of the pesto mayonnaise. Add tomato, onion, and spinach as desired. Replace the top of the bun and skewer with a frilled toothpick, if desired.
