Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken (preferably dark meat)
  • 1/2 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped (or frozen spinach, thawed and drained)
  • 1/4 cup shredded white cheddar cheese (plus more for topping)
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs (optional)
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
  • 4 burger buns (whole wheat or gluten-free)
  • Lettuce, tomato, or any favorite burger toppings
  • Optional: Mustard or aioli for extra flavor

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine ground chicken, chopped spinach, white cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients blend smoothly.
  2. Divide the mixture into four equal parts and form them into burger patties.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
  5. Toast the burger buns to achieve a slight crispness.
  6. Place a patty on each bun and top with additional cheddar cheese, lettuce, and tomato, adding any desired toppings.
  7. Serve with mustard or aioli for those looking to spice things up.

Notes

For extra flavor, let the seasoned meat mixture rest for about 30 minutes before forming patties. Experiment with toppings like avocado or sautéed mushrooms for added variety.
