Aloha Burgers

Its freezing outside, but it is practically tropical in here with this recipe!

Aloha Burgers

1 beaten egg
¼ cup fine dry seasoned bread crumbs
3 tablespoons chopped water chestnuts
¾ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 pound raw ground chicken (feel free to substitute turkey or beef)
¼ cup bottled sweet-and-sour sauce
4 canned pineapple rings
4 kaiser rolls or hamburger buns, split

In a medium bowl combine egg, bread crumbs, water chestnuts, ginger, salt and pepper.
Add ground chicken and mix well.

Shape into four ¾-inch patties.

To grill, place patties on an uncovered grill directly over medium heat; cook for 15 to 18 minutes or till no longer pink, turning once and brushing with sweet-and-sour sauce during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

Meanwhile, place pineapple slices on grill rack. Cook for 5 minutes, turning as needed. (If its as cold at your house as it is at ours, feel free to broil instead of grill, we did!).

To serve burgers, place each patty on half of a bun. Brush patties with sweet-and-sour sauce and top with pineapple slices.
