Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.25 lb ground chicken
  • 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise helps keep patties moist
  • 3 tbsp finely minced red onion
  • 1.5 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1.25 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 0.5 tsp minced garlic
  • 0.75 tsp kosher salt plus more to taste
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp olive oil for the pan or grill grates
  • 4 each burger buns split; toast if desired
  • 4 oz sliced cheddar cheese optional
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce for serving
  • 0.5 cup sliced tomatoes for serving
  • 0.5 cup dill pickle chips for serving

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Stir the panko, mayo, onion, parsley, Worcestershire, Dijon, garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika in a bowl.
  • Add the ground chicken and gently mix until just combined; avoid overworking.
  • Form the mixture into 4 equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Press a shallow dimple in the center of each.
  • Heat a large skillet or grill over medium-high. Brush with olive oil.
  • Cook patties 5–6 minutes per side, until browned and 165°F inside. Add cheese during the last minute to melt.
  • Toast buns cut-side down until lightly golden.
  • Assemble burgers on buns with lettuce, tomato, and pickles. Add your favorite condiments and serve.

Notes

Variation: Stir in a finely minced jalapeño or swap parsley for cilantro. For a smoky twist, add a pinch of chipotle powder. To grill outdoors, oil the grates well and cook over medium heat. Storage: Refrigerate cooked patties up to 3 days or freeze cooked or uncooked patties (separated by parchment) up to 2 months; thaw overnight and reheat gently.
