I love this recipe. I would only switch the cilantro with basil for my personal taste. I was just never fond of the taste of cilantro.
Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend Sweet One! Hugs, Rose

I love chicken burgers. Most alternates to red meat use turkey which I hate and I never understood why chicken was never substituted.
