Natasha's Chicken Burgers

A great chicken burger recipe! Natasha is my eldest daughter, and her eyes light up when I announce we're having these for dinner. While my husband and I eat one or two each, she easily finishes at least three. The onion can be finely chopped, but with three kids, we prefer grating it so as to hide it. I usually serve these with mashed potatoes and Caesar salad for a very comforting meal!

Ingredients

Ingredients List

  • 1 pound extra-lean ground chicken

  • ½ cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs, divided

  • ½ small onion, finely grated

  • 1 egg

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil


Directions

  1. Mix ground chicken, 1/4 cup bread crumbs, onion, egg, and garlic in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Moisten hands and shape chicken mixture, 2 tablespoons at a time, into flat, oval-shaped patties.

  3. Spread remaining 1/4 cup bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Dip patties in bread crumbs to coat.

  4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  5. Cook patties in hot oil until deeply browned on the bottoms, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn patties and cook until other sides are browned, 3 to 4 minutes more.

Tips

Ground turkey can be substituted for ground chicken with great results.
