Juicy chicken burgers loaded with white cheddar, spinach, and fresh herbs – a healthier twist on traditional burgers.

Ingredients

Burger Mixture

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil, for cooking

Assembly

  • 4 burger buns
  • Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato slices, or extra cheese

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, spinach, cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until evenly combined. This will ensure all the flavors are well distributed.
  2. Divide the mixture into 4 portions and shape them into patties. Making uniform patties helps in even cooking.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat, drizzle with olive oil, and cook the patties for 5-6 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the patties.
  4. Transfer cooked patties to a plate and let them rest for a few minutes. Allowing the juices to redistribute keeps the burgers moist.
  5. Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on buns with your favorite toppings. Serve and enjoy! Customize with your preferred condiments and sides.

Notes

  • Can use gluten-free breadcrumbs and buns for a gluten-free option
  • Can be grilled instead of pan-fried
  • Leftover patties keep for 3 days in the fridge or 3 months frozen
