Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ lb lean ground chicken
1 egg
½ cup breadcrumbs
2 Tbsp Better Than Bouillon® Roasted Chicken Base
2 Tbsp everything bagel seasoning
2 Tbsp olive oil
6 bagels, split
1 pkg brick-style herbed cream cheese (6oz), softened
1 cup packed arugula lettuce
6 thinly sliced red onion rounds
¼ cup drained capers

Directions

  • 1

    Preheat grill to medium-high heat; grease grates well.

  • 2

    In large bowl, stir together chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, Roasted Chicken Base, everything bagel seasoning, oil and 2 tbsp water until combined. Divide into 6 portions and shape each into 1/2-inch-thick patty.

  • 3

    Grill patties, turning once, for 10 to 14 minutes or until well-marked, cooked through and an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F when inserted sideways into a patty. Meanwhile, grill bagels, turning once, for 30 to 60 seconds or until lightly toasted.

    Arrange burgers in toasted bagels with cream cheese, arugula, onion and capers.

Tips: Use plain, sesame seed, poppy seed or everything bagels as preferred. For over-the-top burgers, garnish also with smoked salmon slice, fresh dill and avocado slices. A popular seasoning blend, everything bagel seasoning can be found online and at most grocery stores in the seasoning section.
