Instructions

1. 1

   Lightly spray a skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add carrots, bell pepper, tomato, and mushrooms; cook and stir until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.

2. 2

   Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

3. 3

   Mix ground chicken and cooled vegetables together in a large bowl. Add bread crumbs, egg, seafood seasoning, salt, and pepper; mix until well combined. Form mixture into eight patties.

   Cook on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
