Blue Cheese Chicken Burger

recipe courtesy Weight Watchers

cooking spray   

1/4 cup barbecue sauce   

1 1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce, or to taste   

  1 pound uncooked extra lean ground chicken breast   

  1/2 cup uncooked scallions, sliced   

  1/4 cup uncooked celery, chopped   

1/4 cup dried plain breadcrumbs   

2 tsp minced garlic   

1/2 tsp table salt   

(4) mixed-grain hamburger rolls   

  2 cups romaine lettuce, shredded   

  1 large fresh tomato, cut into 8 slices   

2 Tbsp blue cheese, crumbled   

Prepare grill rack by coating with nonstick pray and preheat grill to medium-high.

In a small bowl, combine barbecue sauce and hot pepper sauce.

In a medium bowl, combine chicken, 1 tablespoon of barbecue sauce mixture, scallions, celery, breadcrumbs, garlic and salt. Using wet hands (to prevent mixture from sticking), form chicken mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties; brush top of burgers with some remaining barbecue sauce mixture.

Place burgers on grill, sauce side down; brush tops of burgers with remaining sauce. Grill, turning once, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Lightly toast open-faced buns on grill during last minute of cooking.

To serve, place 4 bun bottoms on each of 4 plates. Top each with 1/2 cup of shredded lettuce, 2 tomato slices, a burger, 1/2 tablespoon of cheese and a bun top (cheese will melt a little from hot burger). Serves 4.  Points Plus Value = 8 points per serving.
