I’m obsessed with these Chili Lime Chicken Avocado Burgers, to say the least. And I hope you will be too! I created this recipe with my friends at Organic Prairie using their Organic Ground Pork and Organic Ground Chicken.

I seasoned the burgers with Watkins Organic Grilling Chili Lime Seasoning, which I am also obsessed with. I’ve been making so many recipes with this amazing seasoning and I have more coming up in the queue.

These Chili Lime Chicken Avocado Burgers are topped with Organic Valley Raw Sharp Cheddar Cheese, avocado, and a homemade zesty slaw. These light burgers are the perfect burger to make on the grill before summer is over!

Why You'll Love This Recipe

Mexican Inspired: If you're looking to spice up your classic burger, then you will love this Mexican inspired take. These Chili Lime Chicken Avocado Burgers have a subtle zesty spice thanks to the chili lime seasoning that pair perfectly with avocado.

Pork + Chicken: I use a mix of ground pork and ground chicken in this recipe. That makes these burgers lean but with tons of flavor! This also is a nice change from traditional ground beef if you want to switch it up this summer.

Grill or No Grill: You can make these on grill or you can make them in a cast iron skillet. That makes this recipe easy to make all year round!
