Ingredients
1/3 cup purchased sweet-and-sour sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons snipped fresh cilantro or parsley
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 medium peaches, peeled, pitted, and chopped (about 1-1/2 cups)
1 pear, cored and chopped (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
1 pound ground raw chicken
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 teaspoons dried basil, crushed
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon bottled hot pepper sauce
Directions
1. For salsa, in a medium bowl combine sweet-and-sour sauce, garlic, cilantro or parsley, lemon juice, and crushed red pepper. Stir in peaches, pear, and the 1 tablespoon chopped onion. Cover and chill up to 4 hours.
2. In another medium bowl combine the chicken, remaining 1/2 cup onion, basil, seasoned salt, black pepper, and hot pepper sauce; mix well. Shape into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. Grill meat on the grill rack directly over medium-hot coals for 14 to 18 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in side of patty registers 165 degrees F, turning once. (Or, grill, covered, indirectly with medium heat for 20 to 25 minutes.) Serve burgers with salsa. Makes 4 servings.
