- Place the cooking grate on the grill, close it, and let it heat up for five minutes. Grill grate should be cleaned and oiled.
- Create 4 patties out of the chicken mixture (or 6, if you prefer smaller patties). Place the patties immediately on the hot side of the grill after liberally salting them all over. Cook for 6 minutes on each side, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 165°F (74°C).
- On the grill, toast the burger buns or naan. Then, place the chicken patties, lettuce, and slices of cucumber in the naan or hamburger buns.
