1/2cupcooked baconin small crumbles (about 5-6 pieces of bacon)
1egg
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the chicken, egg, bacon, cheese, and diced jalapenos.
Use your hands to mix the mixture until they're blended evenly and the egg is worked through all the ingredients.
Make four even patties and place them on a wax paper lined baking sheet until the grill is ready.
Heat your grill to medium/high heat (about 450 degrees) and cook the patties for 5 minutes on each side, or until they're cooked thoroughly.
Serve by themselves, or on a bun with all the fixings.
Notes
Fresh jalapenos without the seeds aren't very spicy at all. If you hate jalapenos altogether, you can sub them for red onion instead.
You could also bake or pan fry these if you didn't want to grill. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes, or pan fry on medium high heat for 5 minutes each side.
