Chicken Burger! Recipe
A chicken burger makes for a fast midweek meal or weekend BBQ’s with buddies! Crispy seasoned chicken breast, topped with necessary melted cheese, piled onto delicate rolls with onion, avocado, lettuce, tomato and garlic mayo.
Wish to the chicken mince model? Right here’s it’s!
I really like an excellent juicy hamburger. Burgers are one in every of my favorite fast meal choices, and in addition my go-to choice after I’m pressed for time when internet hosting a gathering.
Whether or not making beef Hamburgers, Steak Sandwiches or these Chicken Burgers, they’re fast to arrange and cook dinner, then I lay out all of the topping choices and let everybody assist themselves!
For a smart meal choice, I do are inclined to favour these Chicken Burgers over beef Hamburgers as a result of they’re more healthy – leaner meat, decrease energy, decrease fats. Simply as tasty!
These chicken burgers are made with crispy seasoned chicken breast fillets. I simply halve chicken breasts to create two skinny steaks – or you should buy chicken breast already minimize into steaks on the retailer.
Coat in a seasoned flour (the flour makes it good and crispy), pan fry till golden then high with cheese to soften.
In the meantime, that the burger buns or bread rolls and put together your toppings! I wish to fry up some onion as a result of a burger doesn’t really feel like a burger with out onions.
However the great thing about burgers is you can load it up together with your toppings of alternative. Lettuce, tomato, pickles, beetroot, avocado, bacon, egg. Go wild!
Nothing whizz bang about these Chicken Burgers, however they’re a tasty staple recipe. The primary factor is the seasoning for the chicken – I personally assume it’s necessary to load up the chicken with loads of flavour, particularly in case you solely use one thinnish piece like I do (for a better floor space to flesh ratio and no marinating).
I exploit avocado on this burger which provides creaminess and takes the place of a 2nd sauce / mustard that I might in any other case use. I’ve added some ideas within the notes for different condiments that I feel go nice with chicken burgers.

Ingredients
- 1/3 cup /80g flour (any white)
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ¾ tsp paprika
- 1 tsp thyme
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 large onions , halved them sliced (white, brown or yellow)
- 400 – 500g / 14 oz – 1 lb chicken breast (2 pieces) , cut in half horizontally into 2 thin steaks
- 4 – 8 slices Swiss or other melting cheese slices (Note 1)
- 4 soft rolls (I used brioche burger buns)
- 1 avocado
- Lettuce
- 2 large tomatoes
- ½ cup mayonnaise (I use whole egg)
- 1 large garlic clove , minced
- French fries
- Baked potato wedges
Instructions
- Mix Garlic Mayo ingredients in a small bowl, set aside for 20+ minutes.
- Mix Seasoning in a flat bowl / dish.
- If required, pound chicken to about 1 cm / 2/5” thick. If wanting to be exact, trim to shape of rolls BUT ensure it is about 15% larger (it shrinks) (Note 2).
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over high heat (if doing on BBQ, drizzle flat plate).
- Add onion and cook, turning regularly, for 5 minutes until golden. Season with salt and pepper, toss, then remove.
- While cooking the onions, preheat oven to 160C/320F. Split rolls, then lightly toast / warm the rolls (if using BBQ, just toast the cut side until crispy). Leave in turned off oven with door ajar while you cook chicken.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil into the same skillet, still on high heat.
- Dredge chicken in Seasoning, shake off excess, then place in skillet. Repeat.
- Cook for 2 ½ minutes until golden, then flip.
- Top with cheese then leave for 1 1/2 minutes. When the underside is golden, if the cheese is not yet melted, place lid on for 15 seconds (or tray or foil).
- Remove chicken from skillet onto plate. Cover loosely with foil while you start assembling the burgers.
- Smear base of roll with avocado, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with chicken, onion, lettuce then tomato.
- Smear lid of roll with Garlic Mayo, place on burger. Enjoy!
Notes
1. I like using Swiss cheese (or Massdam – like a better value version of Swiss) or processed cheese (think McDonald’s style!) because they melt well but don’t drip everywhere and become slick with oil like Colby, Australian Tasty cheese.
2. If chicken is more than about 1 cm / 2/5” thick, use mallet (or rolling pin, back of knife or can) to pound. If you are wanting to be exact, pound to even. When cooked, surface area will shrink about 15% and thickness will increase by about 15%, so bare that in mind when comparing chicken shape to roll size. For exactness, feel free to trim to shape of rolls – I don’t usually do this unless the shape of the chicken is wildly long.
3. CONDIMENTS: The popular condiments of tomato ketchup and mustard are not in my base recipe because I use avocado. However, feel free to add any and all!
4. Nutrition per serving, assuming 400g/14 oz chicken breast and 1/3 cup mayo. Of the 666 calories per serving, 110 cal from the mayo, 45 cal is from the avocado, and 110 calories is from 1 slice of swiss cheese (yes, seriously). For a low carb version, try this recipe without the buns and make lettuce wraps (with all the other fixings in this recipe) – terrific! Also try using ketchup and mustard instead of mayo.But for days you just want a really tasty burger, don’t sub anything!
