Chicken-Chorizo Burgers with Avocado Mayonnaise

These “burgers” were really good and had a lot of flavor.  I altered the recipe a little, because there were just two of us eating them.  I used 2 chicken breasts and 1 chorizo sausage.

INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup low-fat mayo
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
a splash of fresh lime juice
1/2 ripe peeled avocado, seeded
1/2 pound chorizo sausage
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 (6-inch) corn tortillas, torn into bite-sized pieces
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, coarsely chopped

DIRECTIONS
Prepare grill or preheat broiler.  To prepare mayo, combine first 5 ingredients in a food processor.  Blend until smooth. To prepare burgers, remove casings from sausage.  Place sausage tortillas, salt and chicken in a food processor.  Mix until coarsely ground.  Divide into 8 equal portions.  Place patties on a grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray; cook 7 minutes on each side or until done.
