Instructions

Creating your White Cheddar & Spinach Chicken Burgers is easy if you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by gathering all your ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process.
2. Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, white cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Shape the Patties: Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty.
4. Heat the Pan: Place a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
5. Cook the Patties: Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on one side until golden brown. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 6-7 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
6. Add Extra Cheese: If desired, place a slice of cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
7. Toast the Buns: While the burgers are cooking, toast the burger buns in another pan or toaster until golden.
8. Assemble: Once the patties are cooked, place each on a toasted bun. Top with lettuce and tomato slices.
9. Serve: Serve immediately while hot and juicy!

This simple process ensures that you’ll end up with perfectly cooked, flavorful chicken burgers that everyone will love.
