Ingredients
  

Group: Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground chicken preferably organic, free-range for the best flavor
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs homemade or store-bought, panko is recommended for added crunch
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese adds tangy, creamy goodness
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley brightens the dish
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion adds a subtle sweetness
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced provides aromatic punch
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano brings Mediterranean vibes
  • 1 tsp. salt enhances flavors
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper adds warmth
  • Olive oil for frying

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Skillet
  • Plastic wrap
  • Paper towel

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, feta cheese, parsley, red onion, garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well using your hands.
  2. Crack the egg into the mixture, ensuring everything is well incorporated. It should start to form a sticky, cohesive mass.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. This step allows the flavors to marry and the mixture to firm up.
  4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Wait until it shimmers before adding the patties.
  5. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and form it into a patty, about 3 inches in diameter. Place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
  6. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown and cooked through. Remove the patties and place them on a paper towel-lined plate.
  7. Serve these delightful patties warm with a dollop of tzatziki or a fresh salad!
