📝 Instructions :
Prepare the Chicken Burger Mixture:
In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, shredded white cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Mix everything together until well combined, but avoid overworking the mixture to keep the burgers tender.
Shape the Patties:
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick. Use your hands to form the patties evenly.
Cook the Burgers:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Place the chicken patties into the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the patties are golden brown and cooked through.
Assemble the Burger:
If desired, toast your burger buns in the skillet or on a grill.
Place each chicken patty on a toasted bun and top with your favorite burger toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, or extra white cheddar cheese.
Serve:
Serve the burgers hot with a side of your favorite dipping sauce or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
Enjoy 🤤
