Sink your teeth into the ultimate homemade chicken burger with our Poifect Cluck Cluck Burgers! Made from tender, flavor-packed ground chicken, these juicy patties are elevated with aromatic garlic, fresh parsley, and a smoky hint of paprika. The secret to their perfect texture lies in the Panko breadcrumbs, ensuring every bite is irresistibly moist and satisfying. Topped with melted cheddar cheese, crisp lettuce, juicy tomato slices, tangy pickles, and a slather of creamy mayonnaise, all nestled in lightly toasted burger buns, these burgers deliver layers of divine flavors in every mouthful. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or weekend barbecue, these chicken burgers come together in just 25 minutes and pair beautifully with fries or a fresh salad for an easy, crowd-pleasing meal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, Panko breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Use clean hands or a spatula to mix the ingredients until well combined, but do not overmix.
Divide the chicken mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties that are about 1 inch thick. Place them on a plate or a tray lined with parchment paper.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the chicken patties. Cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving them to achieve a good sear.
Flip the patties and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the second side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last 1-2 minutes of cooking so it melts perfectly.
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on a separate skillet or in a toaster for added flavor and texture.
To assemble, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Layer with a lettuce leaf, a cooked chicken patty with melted cheese, 2 tomato slices, and 2 pickle slices. Cover with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately with a side of fries, a fresh salad, or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy your Poifect Cluck Cluck Burgers!
