  • 1 lb (450g) ground chicken

  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs

  • 1 egg 🥚

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced 🧄

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika 🌶️

🍳 Let’s Make It!

  1. Mix it Up
    In a bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, and spices. Mix just until blended – don’t overdo it or the patties get tough!

  2. Shape & Sizzle
    Form into 4 equal patties. Heat a skillet or grill over medium heat with a splash of oil. Cook patties for about 5–6 minutes per side until they’re golden and fully cooked through (165°F or 74°C).
    🧀 Add cheese slices in the last minute so they get nice and melty.

  3. Toast the Buns
    Lightly butter and toast those buns until golden brown and a bit crisp. This step = next-level burger!

  4. Assemble the Magic
    Layer it like this:
    Bottom bun ➡️ mayo/sauce ➡️ lettuce ➡️ cheesy chicken patty ➡️ tomato ➡️ onion ➡️ pickles ➡️ more sauce ➡️ Top bun
    Press gently and admire your masterpiece. 👏
