Chicken Patties

 Chicken Patties (Juicy & Crispy)

Great for burgers, wraps, or just with a dip.

 Ingredients

• 500g (1 lb) ground chicken

• 1 small onion, finely minced

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 egg

• ½ cup breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)

• 1 tbsp mayonnaise (keeps them juicy)

• 1 tsp salt

• ½ tsp black pepper

• Optional: ½ tsp paprika or Italian seasoning

 Method

1. Mix gently
   Combine everything in a bowl. Don’t overwork the meat.

2. Shape
   Form into 4–6 patties. Slightly flatten (they puff up a bit).

3. Chill (optional but helps)
   20–30 minutes in the fridge to firm up.

4. Cook

   Pan-Fry:
   Medium heat, 4–5 mins per side until golden and cooked through (internal temp 74°C / 165°F).

   Air Fryer:
   190°C / 375°F for 12–14 minutes, flip halfway.

   Oven:
   200°C / 400°F for 18–22 minutes.

 Flavor Boost Ideas

• Add grated cheese inside

• Mix in chopped herbs

• Brush with BBQ sauce last 2 minutes

• Make spicy with chilli flakes + hot sauce

Serving Ideas

• On a toasted bun with lettuce & mayo

• Over salad for low-carb

• With mashed potatoes or sweet potato fries

If you’d like, I can also give you a crispy breaded version or a zero-carb/carnivore-style version.
