How to make homemade chicken burgers

  • In a medium bowl, add all of the ingredients and mix together until well combined, being careful not to overmix. It helps to use your hands to make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed.

  • Form the mixture into 4-6 equal patties, depending on how large you’d like them.

  • Cook the chicken burgers on the preheated grill, flipping halfway through. You want to cook until the patties are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Then you’re ready to assemble the chicken burgers with hamburger buns and toppings of choice.

Tips for making chicken burgers

  1. Press down in the middle of each patty with your thumb. This will help the burgers to cook evenly through and avoid shrinking.
  2. Use your hands to mix the the patties. It’s a little messier but the ingredients will combine much easier this way. You can wear tight fitting plastic cloves to keep your hands clean.
  3. Don’t over mix the burger mixture. Everything should be just combined. If you over mix, the burgers can become tough and chewy.
  4. Once on the grill, don’t flatten the burger with a spatula. When you do this the meat will lose some of its juices. Just flip them, don’t be tempted to press them down.

Frequently asked questions

Can you make chicken burgers ahead of time?

You can make the burger mix a day ahead of time and keep it covered in the fridge until you are ready to use it. Let the mixture come to room temperature before you shape and cook the patties.

Can you freeze chicken burgers?

Yes, you can freeze them before or after cooking for up to 3 months. To freeze, stack them between wax or parchment paper in a freezer-safe container. Alternatively, you can freeze them on a baking sheet, then place them all together in a ziplock bag. To re-heat, thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stovetop or in the oven.

Can you oven cook chicken burgers?

Yes! I prefer to grill them outdoors on in a grill pan on the stovetop, but you can bake them in the oven too. Place them on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven at 400F for about 20 minutes.

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, add ground chicken, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, onions, parsley, garlic, paprika, salt and pepper. Use your hands to combine all the ingredients together until blended, but don’t over mix.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates.
  • Form the mixture into 4-6 equal patties. Press down in the middle of each patty with your thumb to ensure even cooking of the chicken burgers.
  • Cook the chicken burgers on the preheated grill until the internal temperature is 165F, about 10 minutes total, flipping halfway through.
  • Assemble the chicken burgers with hamburger buns and toppings of choice.

Notes

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 3 days in the fridge.
Freezing Instructions: You can also freeze patties before or after cooking for up to 3 months. To freeze, stack them between wax or parchment paper in a freezer-safe container. Alternatively, you can freeze them on a baking sheet, then place them all together in a ziplock bag. To re-heat, thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stovetop or microwave.
Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
  • Instead of mayonnaise, you can use sour cream or one egg. I haven’t tried either of them, but they will help serve the purpose of the mayonnaise, which is to bind the patty.
  • Instead of breadcrumbs, you can use all-purpose flour. 
  • To make it gluten-free, you can use quick oats, almond flour or panko breadcrumbs.

    great in Pita! we make chicken burger Pitas with a corn avocado salad. so good. Thank you for this

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yay! So glad to hear it!

  2. Christine says:

    This recipe is excellent. I have already been telling people how good it is. I shape the burgers using a muffin scoop, so it makes about 8 small burgers, perfect for our family. I saute the burgers in a pan with some olive oil and they turn out great. Thanks for recipe.

    1. Yumna says:

      The muffin tin tip is so smart, thanks for sharing!

  3. Kevin Jensen says:

    This burger makes it easy to reduce my desire for red meat. I love hamburgers, but this chicken burger is amazing! Chick-fil-a could really use something like this.

    1. Yumna says:

      So happy you enjoyed it!

  4. Trisha says:

    These chicken burgers were absolutely to die for. The flavor, the texture, the condiments. Absolutely delicious! Great recipe. Thank you.

    1. Yumna says:

      Thank you so much!

  5. Nidhi says:

    Super easy to make and delicious! Did smoked paprika and added a dash of liquid smoke and it was great.

    1. Yumna says:

      Yum, sounds great!

  6. Mally says:

    These burgers are delicious. I passed this recipe on to other family members. Love them!

    1. Yumna says:

      So glad to hear!

  7. Sara Ware says:

    Delicious! I have to limit beef so I tried these and they were great!

    1. Yumna says:

      Happy you enjoyed them!

  8. ShayNa says:

    Holy cow. I am in disbelief of how delicious these are. I grilled them on my George Foreman. So quick and easy and absolutely delicious. I used jalapeño salsa instead of the onion and that added some excitement to it.

    1. Yumna says:

      Sounds delicious!

  9. Casey says:

    Great flavor, loved it. Will be making again!

    1. Yumna says:

      So glad you liked these burgers!

  10. Linda Jones says:

    These Chicken Burgers are delicious!! I am allergic to mammal meat so can’t eat a regular beef burger. These really hit the spot! So tasty & easy to make. The first time I made them I was out of bread crumbs so used quick oats instead & it worked great so that’s what I’ve done going forward. You can add any seasonings you prefer. I just cook them in an oiled skillet on the stove but grilled would be delicious also. Thank you so much for this tasty recipe.

    1. Yumna says:

      So glad you enjoyed them!

  11. Pam says:

    I love these burgers ❤️

    1. Yumna says:

      Me too!! Glad you have enjoyed the recipe.

  12. Karen says:

    I. Made these burgers as thick sausage shapes and grilled them with a few sprays of rapeseed oil.
    They were totally delicious. I used one egg to bind them in place of the Mayo – personal preference.
    We wrapped them in sweet gem lettuce leaves in place is burger buns and the result was a very tasty, low carb, crunchy dinner that was very filling!

    1. Yumna says:

      Sounds amazing, thanks for sharing!

  13. Vernon says:

    My family loved this

    1. Yumna says:

      Yay! So happy to hear.

  14. Sally says:

    They are delish!! I have been making these almost once a week for the past few months! I use gluten free breadcrumbs.
    I’ve used a 6-in-1 Ninja foodie indoor grill but prefer just frying them on a pan. THANKS!

    1. Yumna says:

      Wow, so happy they have become a dinner time staple for you!

  15. Laura says:

    I am so not the type to comment on recipes but after trying this recipe out I knew I needed to write one. I am a nanny to two VERY picky eaters. They almost never like anything I make them and are very much Mac & cheese kids. These burgers, however, were a HIT. I mean, asking for thirds HIT. Will definitely enter my regular rotation and I encourage you try them out on your picky eaters.

    1. Yumna says:

      Wow, this is the best feedback ever. So happy everyone enjoyed them!

  16. Filsa says:

    Thank you for this easy and tasty chicken burger recipe… perfect for any meal and school lunch. The burger is juicy and delicious. My family’s favorite food now

    1. Yumna says:

      Yay, so glad the family loves these!

  17. Kristy says:

    Hi! Can you tell me if it’s dried minced onion or fresh? Or either? Thank you in advance!

    1. Yumna says:

      Hi there! This would be fresh minced onion. Thanks!

  18. Mark says:

    I’ve made these a couple of times and they are wonderful. I didn’t change a thing in the recipe. They come out perfect every time. Moist and gull of flavor. Just like you said.
    Thanks for sharing!

    Mark

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Mark!!

  19. Zainab says:

    Wow seriously amazing!! Thank you for the easy and quick recipe!!

  20. Amira says:

    We loved this recipe! Delicious and simple ingredients. I’m wondering if you’ve tried using ground turkey instead of chicken? If so, any changes? Thanks in advance!

  21. Elaine says:

    I make these regularly this is such a great recipe. Have used mayo and egg and both turned out great I couldn’t taste the difference so I use egg now to keep the fat content down.

    1. Yumna says:

      Yay, so glad you like the recipe!

    2. Anita says:

      Delicious! These are going on my regular rotation for sure. Ate them with bun tonight but I can fit these in my macros eating just the patty with some rice. Thanks for the recipe!

      1. Yumna says:

        Yay, so glad you enjoyed them!

  22. Rene(e), she/her says:

    Hi 🙂 thank you so much for this recipe! I was going to make chicken burgers from scratch the other night but was nervous about it as it had been long since i made homemade burgers but your recipe was super quick, easy and understandable. I somehow missed the substitution section and as I don’t eat mayo I just left it out (and didn’t put the egg or sour cream but next time I probably will). My favorite part of your recipe though was the note that it can go in the oven! Yessss! It was soooo much less stressful to me and everyone loved them. I am likely to double or triple the recipe next time! And again do it in the oven.
    Well wishes to you 🙂

    1. Yumna says:

      So happy these were a hit and easy for you to make!

      1. Marla says:

        Can I cook them in a pan or oven and if so what temperature and how long ?

        1. Yumna J. says:

          Yes! You can bake them in the oven too. Place them on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven at 400F for about 20 minutes. If you prefer stove top I would do a medium heat and each side for about 10 minutes. You will want to check with a thermometer to make sure the burgers hit an internal temperature of 165F. Hope you enjoy, Marla!

  23. Anthony says:

    We had some frozen mince left over so we decided to make some burgers, my partner found this recipe. We had to double the bread crumbs as it wasn’t binding too well but could have been from the mince being frozen and releasing more fluid.

    Recipe was delicious, the burgers were really tasty and they held their shape amazingly. Nice work!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad you both liked it!

  24. Ag says:

    Made this. Twice. Had to. The first batch disappeared in minutes. Fortunately I had extra mince. Very very tasty. Thank you very much for sharing. Its now a family staple.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So happy to hear that!!

  25. Mario says:

    My kids loved them.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So happy to hear that!

  26. Crystal says:

    Turned out great! Easy and flavorful.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yay, so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

  27. Elie says:

    Excellent recipe! Really easy and adaptable (we used a bit more onion and a bit less garlic because of what we had).

    Just a thought from the note for gluten free options: Pablo breadcrumbs are not gluten free by default. They’re made from a Japanese style of bread but unless it says so explicitly it’ll have gluten.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you for sharing!

  28. Ag says:

    Thank you for sharing this recipe. It was very easy and quick to make but more importantly it was very tasty. I’ve made chicken burgers many times before but had given up because of their blandness. I shouldn’t really be eating mayonnaise but as the chicken mince is so low in fat it balances itself out. I might try the yoghurt version next time but I suspect I will have to up the spices to compensate for the taste.
    Thanks again

    1. Yumna J. says:

      You’re so welcome!

  29. Sarah says:

    So good! I used smoked paprika instead of regular. Will make again!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much!

  30. catherine says:

    delicious!
    very easy to make

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thanks so much!

  31. Sherry Kain says:

    Best chicken burger!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thanks so much!

  32. Sarah says:

    This tasted so good! This will be in our rotation of meals. I cut it up for my 15 month old and 4 year old daughters. They loved it with their ketchup.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad everyone liked it!

  33. Brenda Moore says:

    Wow— probably the best chicken burgers I have made! I was skeptical of the Greek yogurt but it really made the burgers moist. Thanks for a keeper!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad you liked them!

      1. Paige says:

        Where is there Greek yogurt in the ingredients list?

          1. Leslie says:

            Absolutely delicious. A new favorite. So easy to make and grilled perfectly. I had neither fresh parsely nor Italian breadcrumbs, so I used a tablespoon of dried Herbs de Provence and regular breadcrumbs.

          2. Yumna J. says:

            Love that you used Herbs de Provence! Great sub!

  34. Alex says:

    I just want to ask, 272kcal for each patty or for the whole recipe? Thanks in advance!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Hi Alex, great question! That is for the patty only. You’ll have to let me know what you think when you make them!

  35. Narelle says:

    100 out of 5 (actually higher) – top class, best I have ever tasted! Here from the land down under (Australia) we love our burgers. I have decided to never buy shop bought patties (beef, chicken/other) again. After making these I could not believe the flavour, they were moist and cooked so easily. I made BLT burgers – chicken pattie, rindless bacon, lettuce, tomato & added sliced red onion with aioli on burger buns. Cooked the bacon first and with the small amount of leftover fat, I cooked the patties in a non-stick pan. I love this site, and Yumna you are a genius. Every recipe I have tried is amazing. Suggest everyone to stop looking for recipes on other sites and stay here – you will never be disappointed. Yumna’s recipes are simply outstanding – they are foolproof and work every time. Thank you so much Yumna for sharing your beautiful recipes with all of us – you are a legend!! XX

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Narelle for the kind words!!

  36. Tami L says:

    This recipe has me drooling, I can’t wait to try it. I just know by the recipe and the reviews that it’s going to be delicious. This recipe came right on time, I just bought my first container of ground chicken!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      You’ll have to let me know what you think when you make it, Tami!

  37. BetteKay says:

    Could you use ground chicken thighs in this recipe?

    1. Yumna J. says:

      I don’t see why not, but chicken thighs tend to be higher in fat so it may be greasy.

  38. suzanne magnus says:

    I’m making this tonight but I need clarification. When you say minced onions, do you mean dried or mince fresh onions.?

    I’m going to wing it for now….. thank you.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Hope they turned out well! Fresh minced onions is what I like to use.

  39. Ali Ladefoged says:

    Made these for the 4th of July and love l loved them! For toppings we did dijon, goat cheese, arugula, and red onion.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Oo I love the idea of the goat cheese and Dijon with the onions.. sounds so good!

  40. Val says:

    DELICIOUS!! So much flavor!!!
    A 4th of July winner!!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Val!

  41. Diana says:

    Wanted something different today and only had ground chicken. Loved the way these burgers turned out and will definitely make again. Also surprised how nicely the cooked on the grill.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad you liked them, Diana!

  42. JJ says:

    These are delicious! I used coriander because I didn’t have parsley and a grain free panko. So so so good! My new favorite.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad you enjoyed it, JJ!

  43. Lisa says:

    These burgers are sooo good! I followed the recipe except I substituted spicy breadcrumbs for the Italian because that’s all I had. These are so moist and hold together. They freeze well also. Now to try the Italian breadcrumbs in the burgers. I prefer these over a beef burger.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Oo the spicy breadcrumbs sound yummy!

  44. Gigi says:

    I’ve tried many other recipes in the past but this one was by far the family favorite! Moist yet holds together and sooooo tasty! This will be the go-to recipe from now on.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much! So glad you and your family liked it!

  45. Liz says:

    These are SO good! I prefer these burgers over hamburgers now!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So happy to hear that you liked them, Liz!

  46. Rainee says:

    Really good Summer dinner!! I skipped the bun and served over a bed of lettuce with cold raw vegetables. It’s a keeper for us!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad you liked it, Rainee!

  47. Cheryl Machuga says:

    Can you prepare them with the mayo etc then freeze them.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      You sure can!

  48. CORINNE says:

    Love these!! Simple and quick to make. Great flavor

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Corinne!

  49. Vanessa Keegan says:

    SOOO delicious!! I made the recipe as written with the exception of seasoned gluten free breadcrumbs instead of regular and a squirt of Worstershire sauce. I made a garlic aioli to go with it as well which is basically mayo, fresh garlic, and lemon juice. I highly recommend this recipe.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Vanessa! So glad you liked the chicken burgers!

  50. Chris P. says:

    These chicken burgers are very moist and really good! I did add a bit of the Dano’s seasoning as my family really likes it but that was the only adjustment I made. Grilled on medium high for 10 minutes and they were perfect. Great on a warm spring/summer evening for a quick dinner!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Love the addition of the Dano’s what blend did you use?

  51. diane bielefeld says:

    great chix burger recipe. i didnt have any garlic so used garlic powder and still yummy!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Diane!

  52. Anika says:

    The recipe is great and my kids really enjoyed it.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Anika!

  53. Karen Jacobs says:

    So easy! I can’t digest beef so easily, so this is a happy alternative. Feels light but has so much flavor. It is my new “go to” burger!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad you liked it, Karen! Makes me happy to hear.

  54. Katherine says:

    Has anyone tried to make this into a meatloaf?

    1. Yumna J. says:

      I haven’t made this into meatloaf, but I don’t see why you couldn’t!

  55. Shemilia says:

    Thank you for this recipe. These chicken burgers are delicious!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      You’re so welcome!

  56. Tracy says:

    This recipe is delicious!! So easy too. I didn’t have Italian seasoned bread crumbs so I used Panko bread crumbs and added Italian seasoning to the mix. A new favorite for sure!!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much, Tracy!

  57. Mary says:

    Did you grind the oats or leave them whole?

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Hi Mary, great question! You’ll want to grind the oats if you’re using them as your binder. Enjoy!

  58. Gracie says:

    Simply delicious, even my 18 month old loved it! Moist, tender and quick to make, which is a must in my book! Thank you for the great recipe! It is officially my go to recipe from now on!

  65. Beth says:

    DELICIOUS!!!!! I didn’t know what to expect, and I just am blown away at how easy and satisfying this is. Baked mine in the oven, and it’s the perfect lazy girl dinner.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much! We all deserve lazy and delicious dinners!

      1. Juls says:

        What temp and how long did you bake em please and thank you 🙂

        1. Yumna J. says:

          Hi Juls! Great question. I recommend placing them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 400F for about 20 minutes. You’ll have to come back and let me know how you liked them!

  66. Vera Wills says:

    Yum!!! I made these for dinner and they were great!!!! Next time I will double the recipe so we have leftovers! Thanks for the great recipe!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      So glad to hear that you liked them! They also make great freezer patties for nights you just want to heat and eat!

  67. Deepa says:

    Excited to try this! Do you think these can cooked in an air fryer?

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I can’t wait for you to give it a go! While I have yet to try that, I definitely think it could work.

    2. Teri says:

      I cooked mine in the air fryer at 360 for 9 minutes. Each burger weighed exactly 5oz before cooked. Hope this helps. Burgers were great!

      1. Yumna J. says:

        Thanks so much for sharing, Teri!

  68. Brad says:

    This is a great recipe. I found that if you wear plastic gloves and add olive oil to them and the plate you use before grilling them, it allows for much easier handling of the ground chicken. Also I mix all the ingredients together and then mix in the mayonaise. It allows for better dispersion.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much! That is so helpful – thank you for sharing!

  69. Meg says:

    Made these tonight. Very good 👍 followed the recipe exactly but didn’t have fresh parsley so I used dried. Toasted the buns and topped with Swiss cheese and pickles. Nice change from hamburgers

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much! Sounds like a delicious way to enjoy it. It really is!

  70. Amira says:

    Huge hit! Thanks for this simple and delicious recipe!

I did not want all the recipes. Thank you anyways. It sounded wonderful and I only wanted that particular one . Sorry. Your recipes are marvelous I am sure. Mrs. Lonstein

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      If you scroll to the recipe card, there’s a printer icon. When you click on it, I have it formatted in a way to print on 1-2 pages maximum with no images, no large font or anything that takes up too much ink. Can you try that? It should work fine.

  72. Yngellie says:

    Did it twice in 2weeks after discovering this recipe. Thank you
    My patty turned out better with the use of flour than the breadcrumbs. Maybe because what I have are Panko type. Anyhow used very little of salt just because I’m cutting out on that.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That is amazing to hear! Good to note!!

  73. Brad k says:

    Can I use ground turkey instead ???

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      It should work! You can also try my Grilled Turkey Burgers recipe.

  74. Debbie says:

    These were great burgers! They stayed juicy and were easy to put together.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much! That’s exactly what I was going for!

      1. Lisa M says:

        These were awesome! I used fresh chicken breasts that I ground up in my food processor. Added a touch of goat cheese and carmelized onions on top

        1. Yumna Jawad says:

          Thank you! That sounds like a delicious touch!

  75. Karen Clarke says:

    I have made this recipe at least 10
    times. Each time they are perfect and delicious. This is the only go to recipe for ground chicken burgers.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That is such a compliment! Thank you so much!

  76. TB says:

    These are Whataburger fabulous (my favorite). Though it usually annoys me when people switch up recipe ingredients, here I go. Since I only had regular panko and ranch dressing for mayo on hand, those were my subs. Because I have to watch my cholesterol, these just replaced my craving for Whataburger. As good as and maybe better! Thank you so much!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That is such a compliment! I’m glad you were able to make the necessary changes and enjoyed! Thank you!!

  77. Cathy says:

    Oh my!!! These was so easy to make and so delicious! I sautéed in some olive oil and just alittle butter. My family loved them! Great recipe.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed these that much! Yay!! Thank you so much.

  78. Sena says:

    Made this as per the recipe, but shaped then like mini koftes for my young kids. Cooked on stove top and turned out delicious! Was a hit with kids and adults. Thank you! Definitely going into rotation.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That’s such a fun idea! Yum!! You’re so welcome!

    2. Lévon says:

      This use of mayo in the mixture is a great idea! Could this mixture also be for making ground Chicken kebabs or you would use entirely different recipe ??

      1. Yumna Jawad says:

        Thank you! I would follow my Grilled Mediterranean Chicken Kabobs recipe.

  79. Joanna says:

    Great tips in this recipe! These were delicious! Very easy and tasted great. I cooked on a gas stove and they tasted like BBQ!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you! That’s perfect. Yay!!

  80. Nat says:

    I could tell from the ingredients that this recipe was not going to be as flavorful as I wanted but reading all the rave reviews, I decided to try it as-is first. It was okay. Very filling. Chicken doesn’t dry out. I’ll try this again without different seasonings.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you for your feedback! What other seasonings would you have used?

  81. Kira says:

    Did some meal prep last week for this week. Made these up as directed with homemade breadcrumbs and put them in freezer. Pulled them out yesterday and cooked on the flat top grill outside with buttered toasted buns for dinner. Leftovers for lunch today. Definitely going in the meal rotation. So good! Everyone enjoyed them.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I’m glad to hear everyone enjoyed! This is definitely a recipe to continue to look forward to.

  82. LESJAY says:

    Man o’ man o’ shevitz these burgers are AMAZING!
    I didn’t change a thing. I cooked on my grill pan – 5 minutes each side and I added gruyere/swiss cheese on top with a few slices of avocado and I just about ate my fingers off. Will be making this again, and again, and again. Thank you!!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you! That is absolutely perfect. I’m so glad to hear it!

  83. Gale says:

    I made these with no salt seasoned bread crumbs & reduced the salt to 1/4 tsp.
    All I have to say is WOW 🤩. My husband loved these and I will definitely be making at least a double recipe to have on hand. This was the first recipe I have tried from you and I will definitely be trying more. Thank you!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      So glad you both enjoyed! Yay!! Can’t wait to hear what you think about the other recipes too.

  84. Daryl Devore says:

    I wonder if this is all correct for “your 3X” recipe… it is not always the right thing to do, you just tripled the ingredients which anyone can easily do. I will be working this one through to see what the real difference is with the correct revisions of spices. but thank you for the single batch… it
    seems to be fairly tasty.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Let me know how it goes!

  85. Maria says:

    I had been using ground turkey to make turkey burgers, but they did not have much flavor and my family just tolerated them. I tried your chicken burger recipe and my family and I were surprised to find them sooooo delicious! I substituted Greek yogurt for the mayo, crushed seasoned croutons and Panko crumbs for the breadcrumbs, and 1/4 t garlic powder. I have copied and put this recipe on my fridge so I can make it often. Thank you for sharing!!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That is amazing! I’m so happy the entire family loved it. Hope you all continue to enjoy!

    2. Meetal says:

      Honestly, these are so delicious! I always thought of a delicious chicken burger as an enigma because I’ve never enjoyed the chicken breast burgers, finding them dry. This recipe is so easy to make, you’d have most things in the pantry besides the ground chicken and they are delicious! We made two for dinner tonight and froze two for a lazy midweek meal 🙂

      1. Yumna Jawad says:

        Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed this recipe!!

  86. Katie says:

    Glad I doubled this recipe, my 2 and 3 y/o gobbled them. So good! Served them with roasted potatoes + corn.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That’s amazing! Sounds perfect.

  87. Rebecca says:

    These burgers were phenomenal! I had to pan sear them as I don’t have a grill… But even on a cast iron skillet they were incredible! To pan sear I cooked them on a Med-high heat, 5 minutes per side. Cooked perfectly! Will make again!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yay! Glad to hear it worked out that way too. Hope you continue to enjoy this!

  88. Michele says:

    I followed the recipe exactly as is! I used curly parsley and Panko breadcrumbs. These were incredible! My husband was raving about these. I made an extra batch to freeze for a busy week night meal and can’t wait to have again. Thank you!!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That’s perfect! So happy to hear you both enjoyed the recipe!

  89. Noemi Plican says:

    Hello,

    Can I substitute the Italian breadcrumbs for the Crispy Italian Shake n’ Bake ?
    Thank you, kindly.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I have yet to try that, but I think it could work!

  90. talina broom says:

    Does this also. Work with pre made chicken burger if I just add in the stuff not already in it wanting to try?

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      It should!

  91. Jody says:

    I just made these ground chicken burgers today and won’t need to look further for another recipe, they are delicious! Followed the recipe as is and the flavor and texture were perfect. Thank-you for sharing!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That’s perfect! Glad they turned out well and that you enjoyed.

  92. Tracy says:

    Absolutely Delicious!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much!

  93. Savannah says:

    I never- literally NEVER- leave comments, even on my favourite recipea. But these chicken burgers are worth ALL the comments. They are absolutely unreal. Both my husband and I think they’re one of the most delicious things we’ve ever eaten. I’ve never made anything with ground chicken before, and now I don’t want to make anything else! I also never desire to eat burgers without the bun, but I prefer to eat this burger without it- and completely plain- so that nothing else takes away from how incredible it is. Thank you for discovering such an amazing recipe!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much for letting me know! I appreciate you for leaving a comment. Glad you are enjoying this recipe so much!!

  94. Carol says:

    Made these Chicken Burgers tonight Turned them into Chicken Parm Burgers. Delicious! Will definitely make again and share with family.
    Thank you.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That sounds delicious! Hope they enjoy it too!

  95. Elsa says:

    How much protein in burger

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      There are 22g of protein.

  96. Sally says:

    So good!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      So glad to hear it!

  97. Corinne S says:

    This is amazing! Made it multiple times recently. Great flavor, healthy just by itself!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you! That’s amazing!

    2. Cara says:

      Can’t wait to try this! What do you think about using ground turkey in place of chicken? TYIA!!

      1. Yumna Jawad says:

        It should work!

  98. Jaimie says:

    Made these delicious burgers a couple days ago, we loved them so much just made them again! Already sharing this super yummy recipe with family and friends. Can’t wait to explore more of your recipes!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That makes me so happy to hear! I love that!

  99. Nancy says:

    Excellent,used an egg and panko !

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you!!

  100. Sean Boyd says:

    How much almond flour do you think instead of bread crumbs?

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I would use a 1:1 substitution ratio.

  101. Mellissa says:

    Made this for myself and my four year old. She absolutely loved it. The burgers were tasty and easy to make.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That’s amazing! I love that!

  102. Donna says:

    Who ever thought chicken burgers would taste this good! I will make them again; fussy husband loved them. Thanks

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      So glad you both enjoyed these burgers and found it easy to make! You’re so welcome!

  103. Jacqueline says:

    I made these last night for dinner and they were SO good! They were flavorful and juicy. Thanks so much for the delicious recipe- this one is going in our meal rotation.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That makes me so happy to hear! You’re so welcome!

  104. Carol says:

    Thanks for all ur efforts to make full proof recipes for us. Made ur moist chicken burger 2 days ago! It was amazing!!!! Soooo goood!!! 💕💕💕🌷🌷🌷

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      You’re so welcome! That makes me so happy to hear!

  105. Lynn says:

    Hello!
    Do you know if I could bake these in the oven instead? If so, could you share the temperature and cooking time?

    Thank you!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yes, you can bake them in the oven too. Place them on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven at 400F for about 20 minutes.

  106. Louise says:

    This recipe is DELICIOUS!!! I ate them like meatloaf with no bread, the flavors blend so wonderfully. Thank you for a GREAT new addition to my recipes!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you! I love that!!

  107. Munazzah says:

    Excellent recipe, I tried it today. It is not time consuming and result is awesome.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you! I’m so glad to hear that!

  108. Karen says:

    This recipe was so easy and delicious! The kids just gobbled it up! These burgers are going to go into the monthly dinner routine.
    Thank you!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much! That’s amazing!!

  109. Angela says:

    These are the best chicken burgers! We have them several times a month as part of our dinner rotation.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That makes me so happy to hear! Thank you!

  110. Clark says:

    Ooooops! In my previous comment I failed to rate. So, here I am with my 5 star rating. Thanks again. Now I am going to peruse your recipes!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy the other recipes too!

  111. Clark says:

    These are delicious! I have made them several times just as written. I have grilled them and I have baked them. Both work great. Today I subbed the mayo for an egg and the burgers were equally wonderful. Thank you for a wonderful recipe.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you! That’s great to hear. You’re so welcome!

  112. Emi says:

    I have never rated a recipe before, but this one deserves my time and effort. Wow! I followed the recipe, but substituted breadcrumbs with almond flour (1:1), and parsley with sage (but any mild fresh herb will work). Wow! I still cannot get over just how good the chicken patty tastes. I ate it over a bed of lettuce, drizzled lightly with lemon vinaigrette.

    I doubled the batch, and now have delicious and nutritious lunch all week (+more). So happy!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much for leaving a rating! I’m so glad you really enjoyed it. Yay!!

  113. Isabelle says:

    These were soooo good! I’ve made chicken and turkey burgers several times before and although they were good, these were amazing! I will definitely be making these again. I didn’t have ground chicken so pulsed chicken breasts in the food processor to desired consistency, made for a nice lean burger but very moist.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much! That’s incredible!! Yay!

    2. Janis Bukstein says:

      What can you substitute the bread crumbs with. My husband is a newly diagnosed diabetic and cant have carbs. So i was wondering what else i could use. And do you have to put all that stuff in it to make the ground chicken form a patty.

      1. Yumna Jawad says:

        You could use almond flour instead of breadcrumbs.

  114. Susan Stolzenthaler says:

    I have to say..these were truly amazing!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much!

  115. Rob says:

    Made these multiple times. Rough grind the chicken. They are awesome.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you!

  116. Janice Britton says:

    Excellent!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you!

  117. Trisha says:

    Amazing! I made sliders from this recipe with a teeny bit of cayenne. Everything else followed the recipe. Sandwiches were with brioche (small slider size) lettuce, red onion, tomato, and cheddar. EVERYONE freaked out and begged me for more. All 20 sliders are gone way too fast
    , and I have to make more for tomorrow.

    Best recipe for chicken patties I have ever seen. thanks!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That makes me so happy to hear! Thank you so much!!!

  118. Jason says:

    For most recipes, we’ve swapped out bread crumbs for hemp hearts. Lower carb and higher protein. Works like a charm.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I love that idea!

  119. CandyC says:

    Really good! This was my first time using ground chicken and it is so much better than ground turkey. Thanks for a great recipe.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I’m glad you were able to try something new and enjoy it! You’re welcome!!

  120. Jenifer says:

    Just made your ground chicken burgers for dinner. Family doubted me 💯 but they were pleasantly surprised. Delicious 😋🙌🏻🙌🏻

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I’m glad they gave it a try and enjoyed it! Yay!!

  121. LBH says:

    Just made these and they were beyond my expectations! We did go a little heavy on the garlic and added a bit more Mayo to compensate for accidentally adding too much bread crumb. They had a delicious crispy top and bottom and were SO moist inside. Def making again!
    Thank you for sharing your recipe!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      That’s amazing! Never too much garlic! You’re so welcome!

  122. Carmela says:

    WOW, full of flavor and easy to make! First time making chicken burgers and this will be my go to recipe :).

    I was worried they were not cooked through so I cut them in half to check. Investing in a thermometer for the next time.

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      I’m so glad to hear it! A thermometer is a great tool to have on hand in the kitchen; this one is my favorite: https://amzn.to/31Z1PFc

  123. Rachel says:

    These came out fantastic!
    I made some minor adjustments that worked in a pinch! I didnt use parsley. Instead of minced garlic I used garlic powder. Instead of minced onions I used a packet of onion soup mix. I had plain breadcrumbs so added Italian seasoning to them.
    They were delicious! My husband says we have to add this to our meal rotation now!!!
    I have leftovers to reheat. At what temp and how long would you reheat in the oven?

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Thank you so much! I’m glad it worked with those modifications too! To re-heat, you can thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stovetop or in the oven. I would reheat at 400F for roughly 5 minutes, flipping halfway.

  124. Amy says:

    Best recipe . Just grilled some and everybody loved it

  125. Magda says:

    These came out amazing! They will definitely replace my usual egg recipe. I grilled them on a sheet of tinfoil sprayed with olive oil spray and they didn’t stick at all.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it that much!

  126. Pat says:

    Best chicken burgers ever. Very moist

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Wow, thank you so much!

  127. Tara Turner says:

    These are amazing! It was my first time making chicken burgers and these were fantastic. Tender and tasty!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much! That’s so great to hear!!

  128. Sarah says:

    I made them in the oven and they turned out great! Very tasty and juicy. Thank you for giving me meal inspirations every week!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      That’s great! You’re so welcome!!

  129. Anita says:

    Hi , What can be used as a substitute instead of bread crumbs ?

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Instead of breadcrumbs, you can use all-purpose flour.

      1. Anita says:

        Tried the burgers today … turned out so juicy and amazing flavours !!!

  130. Helen says:

    Could you use ground beef in this recipe?

  131. Annesha says:

    It was superb.. I don’t think I will be ordering from outside anymore

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Love it when food from home tastes as good as something you’d get at a restaurant!

  132. SF in DVM says:

    With this recipe, i’ll be purchasing more ground chicken. It was yummy, thank you.

    1. Yumna J. says:

      You’re so welcome!

      1. Lynn says:

        I’ve made this recipe several times and it is always a crowd pleaser. We are enjoying ground chicken so much, I wish I would have made it sooner. Excellent recipe, very flavorful and my family loves flavor!

        1. Yumna J. says:

          That’s amazing! Glad you got around to trying it!!

  133. Mary jo says:

    These chicken burgers were delicious!! I cooked them in a sauté pan with some butter. So good. Will make these again soon!!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much! I love that!!

  134. Amy says:

    Easy to make and loaded with flavor.
    Everybody in my family enjoyed it. Thanks .

  135. Angela Smith says:

    We made these for dinner and they were so delicious! This is definitely going to be in our monthly dinner rotation and might be a grill staple!!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      That’s perfect! I love that!!

  136. Ann Shaw says:

    used ground turkey and baked in the oven as per your instructions. They were delicious!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      I’m so glad to hear that! Thank you!!

  137. Abigail G says:

    These were soooo juicy and delicious! I’ve made chicken burgers before but they always came out a little dry, this is the first time it wasn’t dry and it was perfect in every bite!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      That’s perfect! I’m glad to hear it!

  138. Fatema Nasir says:

    I tried these and my family loved it. They were ( so good) your style😍

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Yay!! I love that!

  139. BB Homemaker says:

  140. Kisha Holt says:

    I made these burgers from my family. They were delicious and bursting with lots of great flavor. Thank you!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      That makes me so happy to hear! You’re so welcome!

  141. Orli says:

    Delicious burgers and very easy to prepare. We do not eat red meat and I was looking for a traditional burger alternative. Followed recipe as is except for onion. Added a dash of Old Bay Seasoning. Also a hit with my 10 year old!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much! I’m glad this hit the spot!

  142. Janet says:

    These burgers were super simple to put together and boy were they good!! The only real change I made was using whole wheat bread crumbs and Italian seasoning. Would definitely make these again!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you! You could definitely do that to fit your preferences!!

  143. Sandy says:

    I don’t know what I could say about these burgers other than they are amazing! I am such a picky person when it comes to using somebody else’s recipe but I have been wanting to have chicken burgers for a while and I said what the heck. Well, these will always be my go to!! Thank you for sharing!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      I’m so glad you gave this a try and that it hit the spot! Yay!! You’re so welcome!

  144. Sarah says:

    I made these tonight and they were fantastic! I had them put together and ready to go within 10 minutes. I ended up baking the patties and they turned out perfect. I will be making these again!

  145. Les says:

    Really delicious chicken patties! Wow, easy recipe and yummy. Made in under 20 minutes. Will definitely make again. Already bookmarked this recipe!

    1. Yumna J. says:

      That is perfect! I’m so happy to hear that!

    2. Jordan says:

      These chicken burgers are our favorite thing to make!! They are so good! My family used to hate chicken burgers and then we tried this recipe and now they ask for them every day! 10/10 recommended !

      1. Yumna J. says:

        Aww, yay! I’m so happy to hear that!

  146. Ellie Kohankabir says:

  149. Aro Markakis says:

    1. Yumna J. says:

      Thank you so much! Tzatziki sounds delicious in this.

  150. RAY FORSTER says:

    everyone complains about bland ground chicken……………….NOT HERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Wow, the best !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    we used Miracle whip instead of mayo. If the flavour is too intense you could use 1/2 Italian and 1/2 plain breadcrumbs.
    Thanks for a great tasting recipe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yay, so glad to hear it!! Thank you for all the explanation marks!!! Made my day!

  151. Andrea says:

    I found you via google! Made these delicious burgers last night! I’ll share a picture via Instagram later and copy you! Loved the addition of mayo! Made them so moist! Must repeat! Thank you so much for sharing!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yay, so glad to hear it! Thank you!

  152. Kristal says:

    WOW, these chicken burgers were incredible!!! Topped them with sliced avocado, and served with your healthy coleslaw, what a delicious meal!

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      What an amazing combination!! Thanks so much for sharing!

  153. Angie says:

    Hi! Do you think this recipe will also work with ground turkey instead of chicken?

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      Yup! I think that would work just great

  154. Mariam says:

    I tried this one and many other recipes in here, never a fail, I really liked them, all turned out great 🙌

    1. Yumna Jawad says:

      So glad to hear it Mariam! Thank you!

  155. Jaclyn P says:
