Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup oats
- 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 8 pieces whole wheat slider buns
- 8 pieces lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, egg, oats, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese into the chicken mixture.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into patties roughly the size of your slider buns.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chicken patties to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the outsides are a golden brown.
Remove the cooked patties from the skillet and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
To assemble the sliders, place a piece of lettuce on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a chicken patty, a slice of tomato, and then the top half of the bun.
Serve these delicious and high-protein sliders warm and enjoy!
