In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken with the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, chopped garlic, the juice and zest of 1 lemon, chopped cilantro, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, grated Parmesan, chopped scallions, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Mix everything until just combined, but try not to overwork the meat.
Shape the chicken mixture into balls, then roll each ball in the prepared spice rub to coat evenly. Flatten the seasoned balls into patties, aiming for your desired thickness. Grill the burgers until the juices run clear, which indicates they're cooked through. The exact cooking time will vary depending on how thick you've made them.
While the burgers cook, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the 2 tablespoons smooth mustard, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until smooth.
