Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground chicken
- ½ cup breadcrumbs (or crushed crackers)
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon minced onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking
Optional Additions:
- Grated Parmesan cheese
- Chopped bell peppers
- Dash of paprika
Instructions
- Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Form the Patties: Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each one into a flat patty about ½ inch thick. Wet your hands slightly if the mixture sticks.
- Cook the Patties: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the patties, leaving space between them. Cook for 5 minutes per side or until golden brown and fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
- Create the Sauce: While the patties rest, sauté sliced onions and mushrooms in the same skillet. Deglaze the pan with beef broth or wine, then stir in a slurry of cornstarch and water to thicken the mixture. Simmer until desired consistency is reached.
- Serve: Place the patties on plates, spoon the sauce over them, and serve with sides like mashed potatoes or cauliflower mash.
Notes
For extra flavor, add grated ginger or soy sauce for an Asian-inspired version.
To prevent dry patties, don’t overwork the meat mixture and let the patties rest before cooking.
Pair with creamy sides like mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables for a balanced meal.
