21 Day Fix: Spicy Hawaiian Burgers

So yummy...just watch out for that smoke detector in your kitchen :) I set mine off more than once the last time I prepared these indoors!!

Spicy Hawaiian Burgers
2 pounds of ground chicken or turkey
6 pineapple rings
6 whole wheat buns (or omit buns, save a yellow containers, and just use a lettuce wrap!!)
6 slices of pepper jack cheese
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 tsp. smoked paprika
1 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1 clove garlic, minced
*Sweet potato fries—homemade or frozen J

Preparation
1. Combine the chicken, soy sauce, 1/2 paprika, 1/2 chili powder, season salt, cumin, and garlic.
2. Mix with hands and form into 6 even balls.
3. Flatten into patties, slightly thinner in the middle.
4
. Sprinkle with paprika and chili powder. 
5. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
6
. Spray griddle and grill patties over medium heat for 6 minutes per side. They should flip easily. If they want to stick, let them grill for another minute. 
7
. Add cheese slice the last 2 minutes. Remove patties to a plate and cover with foil.
8. Grill pineapple rings for 1-2 minutes over medium heat.

Assemble burger with patty and pineapple and enjoy!
Add a bit of sriracha on top for even more zip!
