What’s in this Chicken Burgers recipe?
Juicy, lean, and easy to make stovetop chicken burgers pair perfectly with homemade burger sauce and any other toppings your heart desires!
Ground Chicken: Use ground chicken to form burger patties. Canola Oil: Vegetable oil can be used instead if preferred. Worcestershire Sauce: This adds just the right amount of savory depth to the chicken patties. Milk: This adds moisture to the chicken patties to help keep them from drying out. I use whole milk, but any milk should do the trick. Salt and Pepper: Be careful not to use too much salt. As for the pepper, freshly cracked will yield the best flavor. Cheese: Choose your favorite–cheddar, Swiss, and pepper jack are all great options. Or skip the cheese if you prefer. Burger Buns: Toast the buns in the skillet while the patties cool to add a little extra texture to your burgers.
Pro Tip: Don’t overwork the ground chicken when you are making the burger patties, or they will become tough.
What are the best toppings for chicken burgers?
The choice is yours! The burger sauce we use here is amazing, but you can use mustard, ketchup, mayo, or another condiment instead. Pick your favorite cheese, or skip it. Consider adding lettuce, tomatoes, onions, or pickles.
How to Store and Reheat
In an airtight container in the fridge, cooked chicken burger patties will stay fresh for about 2-3 days. Reheat them right back in the skillet over medium-low heat until warmed through.
How to Freeze Chicken Patties
Let cooked chicken burgers cool, then separate them with parchment in a freezer-safe container. They will keep in the freezer for 3 months. Defrost before cooking.
