Ingredients

For The Burgers:

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup seasoned Italian breadcrumbs or panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 burger buns optional

Sauce & Cheese:

  • 3/4 cup marinara sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded light Mozzarella cheese
  • fresh basil optional

Instructions

  • Add the ground chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, oregano, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to a large bowl. Mix to combine the burger mixture.
  • Divide the mixture into four, even-sized balls. Then, press down to form the patties.
  • Lightly spray a non-stick pan or grill pan with oil over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Evenly spoon the marinara sauce over each patty. Sprinkle with shredded light mozzarella cheese, then place the lid on the pan to melt the cheese.
  • Serve the burgers on your favorite buns, top with fresh basil leaves, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Ground Chicken Substitution: For a leaner option, use ground chicken breast. Or, substitute the ground chicken with ground turkey or ground turkey breast.
  • Marinara Sauce: You can use your favorite store-bought marinara sauce for convenience. Or, try our delicious homemade marinara sauce recipe, roasted tomato sauce, or slow cooker tomato sauce.
  • Low-Carb Option: Use lettuce wraps instead of burger buns.
  • Storage: You can store leftover cooked chicken Parmesan patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Store the buns separately to prevent them from getting soggy.
