Ingredients
  

1 lb ground chicken

1 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped

1 cup white cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 small onion, finely diced

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil (for cooking)

Burger buns

Toppings (lettuce, tomato, avocado, mayo, etc.)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, white cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, diced onion, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

    Form Patties: Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty that’s about 1/2 inch thick.

      Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.

        Cook the Patties: Add the chicken patties to the skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and they are golden brown on the outside.

          Toast the Buns: In the last few minutes of cooking, you can place the burger buns cut side down in the skillet to toast slightly.

            Assemble the Burgers: Once the patties are cooked, place them on the toasted burger buns. Add your choice of toppings such as lettuce, slices of tomato, avocado, and a dollop of mayo.

              Serve: Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your flavorful White Cheddar and Spinach Chicken Burgers!
