.................................................................................
1. In a medium saucepan, bring water to a
boil over high heat. Add barley, stir, then
reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 35
minutes, until water is absorbed and barley
is tender. Remove from heat. Transfer barley
to a large mixing bowl and let cool 10
minutes.
2. Preheat grill to medium. Add chicken,
onion, barbecue sauce, paprika, cayenne
(if using), and garlic powder to barley. Mix
thoroughly with clean hands, then form
mixture into six equal-size patties and
place on a plate. May be prepared up to
this point 1 day in advance, covered, and
refrigerated.
3. Use a pastry or barbecue brush to apply
half the oil to one side of the burgers.
Place burgers on grill, oiled side down,
and cook 5 minutes. Brush tops of burgers
with remaining oil. Flip burgers and cook
an additional 4 to 5 minutes, until cooked
through.
4. While burgers are cooking on second
side, split hamburger buns or English muffins
and toast on the grill 2 minutes. When
burgers are ready, place on toasted buns
or English muffins and serve immediately,
with toppings as desired.
