CHIPOTLE SAUCE FOR BURGERS OR GRILLED CHICKEN



Chipotle Sauce for Burgers or Grilled Chicken image

This sauce is a creamy, spicy and flavorful change from the regular ketchup or mayo that we usually put on our burgers or grilled chicken. It could be used as a salad dressing also or even with fish........any way you'd like to use it!! It's even great as a dip for veggies or tortilla chips. I have 3 different recipes. Below in the directions you'll find the other 2. My favorite use for it is with grilled chicken breast, lettuce and tomato on a toasted roll. YUM!!

Categories     Sauces

Time 15m

Yield 1 bottle, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (16 ounce) bottle ranch dressing
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chipotle chile in adobo

Steps:

  • Mix the ingredients at least a few hours before using so the flavors have a chance to blend.
  • Recipe #2: 1 envelope Ranch dressing mix, 2 cups sour cream, 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, juice of 1/2 of a lime, 1-2 T chipotle pepper in adobo sauce. Mix all together.
  • Recipe #3: 2 cups ranch dressing (preferably the kind made with the envelope since it's thicker), 1/2 cup salsa, 1/2 t chipotle chili powder or chili powder and cayenne (to your taste).

Tips:

  • Use a good quality ground chicken: Look for ground chicken that is made from fresh, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. Avoid ground chicken that is made from mechanically separated chicken, as it is lower in quality and can have a less desirable texture.
  • Season the ground chicken well: Before grilling, season the ground chicken with a variety of spices and herbs. This will help to give the burgers flavor and depth of taste.
  • Don't overmix the ground chicken: When mixing the ground chicken, be careful not to overmix it. Overmixing can make the burgers tough and dense.
  • Form the burgers gently: When forming the burgers, be gentle and avoid pressing them too firmly. This will help to keep the burgers tender and juicy.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat: Grill the burgers over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Do not overcook the burgers, as this will make them dry and tough.
  • Let the burgers rest before serving: After grilling, let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to keep the juices in the burgers and prevent them from drying out.

Conclusion:

Grilled chicken burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of toppings and sauces. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a fun and festive dish for your next cookout, grilled chicken burgers are sure to please everyone at the table.
