Natasha’s Chicken Burgers

Ingredients

• 1 pound extra-lean ground chicken
• 1/2 cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs, divided
• 1/2 small onion, finely grated
• 1 egg
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 teaspoons olive oil

Directions

Mix ground chicken, 1/4 cup bread crumbs, onion, egg, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Moisten hands and shape chicken mixture, 2 tablespoons at a time, into flat, oval-shaped patties.

Spread remaining 1/4 cup bread crumbs into a shallow dish. Roll patties in bread crumbs to coat.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Cook patties in hot oil until deep brown in color on the bottom, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn patties and cook until other side is browned, 3 to 4 minutes more.
