Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • ¼ cup diced red onion
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 1 cup (loosely packed) baby spinach, roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Optional Items for Serving

  • Butter lettuce
  • Tzatziki sauce
  • Crumbled feta cheese
  • Sliced onion
  • Sliced tomato
  • Sliced avocado

Instructions

  1. Make the burger patties: In a medium bowl, combine the ground chicken, diced red onion, minced garlic, finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped baby spinach, chopped fresh dill, dried oregano, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Use your hands to mix everything thoroughly. Divide the mixture evenly and form 4 large burger patties.
  2. Cook the patties: Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the patties in the skillet and cook for approximately 5 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown on the outside and cooked through in the center. Alternatively, you can grill the patties on a preheated grill over medium heat until fully cooked.
  3. Assemble the chicken burger: Serve the patties plain or assemble them into burgers using optional toppings such as butter lettuce, tzatziki sauce, crumbled feta cheese, sliced onion, tomato, and avocado. Enjoy while warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use ground chicken breast for a leaner option, or ground thigh meat for juicier burgers.
  • Ensure chicken patties are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for food safety.
  • Sun-dried tomatoes add a concentrated flavor; use oil-packed for more moisture or dry-packed if preferred.
  • Tzatziki sauce pairs perfectly with the herbs in the burger for a refreshing taste.
  • These can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 1 day or frozen for longer storage.
  • For a gluten-free option, omit bread or use gluten-free buns when assembling.
