Directions
- Begin by washing and drying all produce, then prepare the raspberries and garlic for the sauce.
- In a blender, combine orange juice, raspberries, minced garlic, ketchup, sugar, Worcestershire, and spices; blend until smooth and set the sauce aside.
- Heat a grill pan, outdoor grill, or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly oil the surface.
- Prepare the chicken by patting dry, then slice horizontally to form thin cutlets; season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Cook the chicken on the hot surface until well charred and cooked through, about 3–4 minutes per side; transfer to a plate and loosely cover with foil.
- On a clean board, trim and slice the bell peppers, then add asparagus and onion into a bowl; toss with oil, salt, and pepper.
- Grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred, flipping once, then return them to the bowl.
- Toast buns if desired, then spread a tablespoon of BBQ sauce on the bottom halves; layer with chicken, more sauce, and the top buns.
- Divide burgers and vegetables among plates, serve with the remaining sauce on the side for dipping.
Two tips
- Make the sauce ahead: blend and chill for up to a day before serving.
- For a lighter option, swap to a thinner sauce and serve the veggies on the side as a colorful platter.
