Instructions

Place ground chicken in a medium sized bowl. Add cilantro, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Use a wooden spoon or your hands to mix together thoroughly. Form chicken mixture into four patties.
Place chicken patties onto a pre-heated grill. Cook about 5 minutes on both sides, or until cooked through and the interior temperature reaches 165. Top each burger with a slice of cheese during the last minute or two so it can melt.
Place cooked chicken burgers on the buns. Top each burger with one-fourth of the grilled onions, a slice of cooked bacon, lettuce, and the condiments of your choice.
