Hawaiian Chicken Burger Recipe

Spread the Joy!

I recently discovered that hawaii is famous for its pineapples..All their food has pineapples in it, starting from curries to rice… Specially their burgers, it has pineapples. I was quite confused how chicken and pineapples go together, I mean, How a fruit can be added to a meat. But once I tried it, I was totally SURPRISED…Yes I highly recommend you to try this burger..This burger turned out to be super juicy one. I think its because of the Crushed Pineapple which we add in this makes it super moist and tender.

I also grilled up a slice of Pineapple and topped the burger with it. The burger is glazed with the tangy Tomato Ketchup which really makes it. And those sharp tasting onions turned so sweet when it is grilled…One thing I can say about this burger is FLAVOUR,FLAVOUR, & FLAVOUR.. Each mouth is like heaven, there are so much different flavours going on in this burger. Hubby helped me in making this burger and we were in a excited state when we were making this, because we never know how this will taste like..But once we tried it, IT WAS LIKE MY GOODNESS, IT IS SO DELICIOUS & JUICY…

Turn over the Pineapple slices, Onions, and Burger buns when they get nice grill marks over them. Cook on other side too and remove them.

Turn over the pattice after 5 mins and brush them with a generous splash of Tomato Ketchup. Cook for 5 more mins on other side too. Brush with more Tomato Ketchup.
