Total Time20 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 clove garlic grated
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh oregano minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 slices smoked mozzarella cheese
  • 4 pieces buns lightly toasted
  • microgreens for topping, optional

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl combine the ground chicken, grated garlic, minced sun-dried tomatoes, minced oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper.
  • Use your hands to gently but thoroughly mix the ingredients until evenly distributed; do not overwork the meat.
  • Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4-inch thick.
  • Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  • Add the patties to the skillet and cook until no longer pink in the center and firm to the touch, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Top each cooked patty with a slice of smoked mozzarella, cover the skillet, and let rest 2 minutes to melt the cheese.
  • Place each patty on a toasted bun and add microgreens if using, then serve.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the chicken to keep burgers tender.
  • Patty thickness affects cook time; adjust as needed.
  • Use pre-toasted buns to prevent sogginess.
