Craving the classic fast-food indulgence without the guilt? Our Low Fat Chicken Big Mac recipe offers all the iconic layers you love—juicy chicken patties, creamy special sauce, crisp iceberg lettuce, tangy pickles, and melty low-fat cheese—wrapped in wholesome whole wheat buns. This healthier homemade version swaps out traditional beef for lean ground chicken and uses a yogurt-based sauce with low-fat mayonnaise for a lighter but equally delicious twist. Perfectly seasoned with garlic and onion powders, these quick-cooking patties are golden brown and bursting with flavor. Ready in just 35 minutes, this low-fat Big Mac-inspired creation is ideal for anyone seeking a diet-friendly yet satisfying alternative to the classic burger.
In a bowl, combine ground chicken, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.
Divide the chicken mixture into four equal portions and shape each into thin patties.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken patties for about 5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together low-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat mayonnaise, mustard, white vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika to create the sauce.
Toast the whole wheat hamburger buns lightly in the same skillet used for the patties.
To assemble, spread a layer of the sauce on the bottom bun, add a chicken patty, a slice of low-fat American cheese, a few pickle slices, and chopped onion. Add another layer of sauce.
Place another chicken patty on top, followed by shredded iceberg lettuce. Place the top bun over the lettuce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat chicken Big Mac!
