Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g ground chicken
- 60 g breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 burger buns
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 4 slices sliced tomato
- 4 cheese slices (optional)
- 4 tbsp ketchup
- 4 tbsp mayonnaise
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty about ¾ inch thick.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the surface.
Place the chicken patties in the pan and cook for 4–5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). If using cheese slices, place a slice on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover to let it melt.
Toast the burger buns lightly in the pan or on a toaster for extra flavor.
Assemble the burgers: Spread 1 tablespoon each of ketchup and mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, a cooked chicken patty, a slice of tomato, and the top bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides like fries, coleslaw, or a simple salad. Enjoy your juicy chicken burgers!
