Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground chicken
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup Bread crumbs, unsalted
- 1 tablespoon No salt added Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 6 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato, sliced
- 6 Low sodium cheese slices
- 6 Whole wheat slider buns
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, minced garlic, chopped onion, unsalted bread crumbs, no salt added Dijon mustard, black pepper, paprika, and dried oregano. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the chicken mixture into 6 equal portions and shape each portion into a slider patty. Set aside on a plate.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken patties to the skillet.
Cook the patties for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through, with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
While the patties are cooking, prep the slider buns by opening them and laying a piece of lettuce on the bottom half of each bun.
Once the patties are fully cooked, place a slice of low sodium cheese on each patty and allow it to melt slightly.
Place the cooked patties with melted cheese on the lettuce-lined buns. Top with a slice of tomato and the top bun half.
Serve immediately while the sliders are warm and enjoy your low sodium savory chicken sliders.
