- In a food processor, pulse the coarsely chopped zucchini until finely minced. Transfer the minced zucchini to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out any excess moisture.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, minced zucchini, fresh corn kernels, finely diced red bell pepper, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Use your hands or a spoon to mix the ingredients until well combined.
- Divide the chicken mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the grill grates or pan with cooking spray.
- Place the burger patties on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the burgers are cooked through and golden brown on the outside. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Once cooked, remove the burgers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- If desired, serve the burgers on whole grain burger buns or lettuce leaves, topped with tomato slices and avocado slices.
