In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the mixture along with the lemon zest. Mix again to distribute the parsley and lemon zest throughout the chicken mixture.
Divide the chicken mixture into 4 equal parts and shape them into patties, approximately 1 inch thick. Ensure that the patties are even in thickness to promote uniform cooking.
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the chicken patties on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C) and the patties should have a nice char on the outside.
Once cooked, remove the patties from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled chicken patties on buns with your choice of toppings and condiments, or serve them with a side salad for a lighter option.
