Instructions

1

In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

2

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2-inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.

3

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.

4

Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Avoid pressing down on the patties to keep them juicy.

5

While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster for extra flavor.

6

Assemble the burgers: Spread mayonnaise or your favorite sauce on the bottom bun. Add a lettuce leaf, then place the cooked chicken patty on top. Add tomato and red onion slices, then cover with the top bun.

7

Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes like fries or a fresh salad.

Chef's Tips

  • Juicy Tip: Do not overmix the chicken mixture, as it can make the patties tough.
  • Grill Alternative: If you don’t have a grill, a stovetop skillet works just as well.
  • Cheese Option: Add a slice of cheddar or pepper jack cheese during the last minute of cooking for a cheesy twist.
  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the patties ahead of time and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before cooking.
  • Gluten-Free: Substitute breadcrumbs with gluten-free breadcrumbs or almond flour if needed.
