Instructions:

1. Prepare Mushrooms:

   • Remove stems from mushrooms and finely chop half of them (approximately 1 cup); slice the remainder and set aside.

2. Cook Mushrooms and Garlic:

   • In a small saucepan, combine the finely chopped mushrooms and minced garlic with 1/2 cup of chicken broth.
   • Cook over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes or until tender.

3. Add Bulgur:

   • Stir in the bulgur and bring the mixture to a boil.

4. Simmer Bulgur:

   • Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer for 10 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed, and the bulgur is tender.

5. Combine Ingredients:

   • Remove the saucepan from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked bulgur mixture with ground chicken, chopped green onions, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper.

6. Shape Patties:

   • Mix the ingredients until well combined, then shape the mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick patties.

7. Grill Patties:

   • Lightly coat a grill rack with nonstick cooking spray and preheat it.
   • Place the patties on the grill rack over medium coals.
   • Grill for 14 to 18 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking, or until the burgers are firm and no pink remains.

8. Cook Sliced Mushrooms:

   • While the patties are grilling, cook the sliced mushrooms in the remaining chicken broth in a small saucepan, covered, until tender (about 4 to 5 minutes).

9. Serve:

   • To serve, spread dijon-style mustard on the bottom halves of rolls or buns, if desired.
   • Place the cooked patties on the bottom halves of the rolls, and top them with some of the cooked sliced mushrooms.
