  • Author: Lina Carter
  • Total Time: 59 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground chicken
– 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
– ½ cup white cheddar cheese, shredded
– 1 large egg
– ¼ cup breadcrumbs
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– ½ teaspoon onion powder
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ¼ teaspoon pepper
– 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
– Burger buns (optional)
– Toppings: lettuce, tomato, avocado, or any preferred condiments


Instructions

To create the amazing White Cheddar & Spinach Chicken Burgers, follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by chopping the spinach and mincing the garlic.
2. Mix the Burger Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, shredded white cheddar, egg, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
3. Form Patties: Shape the mixture into patties, about 1 inch thick, ensuring they are uniform in size for even cooking.
4. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot before adding the patties to achieve a nice sear.
5. Cook the Patties: Place the patties in the skillet, cooking for about 5-6 minutes on one side. Flip carefully and cook for another 5-6 minutes on the other side until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
6. Add Cheese (optional): If you desire extra melted cheese, add a slice of white cheddar on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking. Cover the skillet to help it melt.
7. Remove from Skillet: Once cooked, carefully remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
8. Assemble the Burgers: If using, toast the burger buns lightly. Place each patty on a bun and top with your choice of lettuce, tomato, avocado, or condiments.
9. Serve and Enjoy: Your delicious White Cheddar & Spinach Chicken Burgers are ready to be enjoyed!
