1 lb Extra lean ground chicken, turkey or beef

1/4 tsp. Chili powder
4 Whole grain hamburger buns
Directions
In skillet cook chicken.
In small bowl, combine vinegar, Worcestershire, honey, and hot pepper sauce. Whisk to blend. Set aside.
Drain any liquid from the meat. Add onion, bell pepper, tomato sauce, chili sauce, chili powder, and the reserved vinegar mixture to the pan. Stir to blend.
Bring mixture to a boil then reduce the heat so mixture simmers.
Cook for 20 minutes, or until mixture is thickened.
Spoon onto buns.

Notes:
Most ground chicken contains both white and dark meat, and there is 15g of fat in 4oz vs white meat ground chicken, which is 1.5g fat. Cub and likely other mass grocery retailers do not carry white meat ground chicken and won't grind the breasts for you. I went to Von Hanson's (a local chain butcher shop) and bought frozen ground white meat chicken for about the same price as the crappy stuff.
You can lessen the calories in this by using light bread buns. I use Village Hearth Light Italian Buns, which they have at Cub.
