Ingredients
1 lb ground chicken
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large egg
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons oil for frying
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, grated onion, garlic, egg, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper. Mix just until combined.
2. Divide the mixture into equal portions and form into patties. Use oiled or damp hands to prevent sticking.
3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook patties in batches for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
4. Transfer cooked patties to a paper towel-lined plate and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes in the fridge for easier shaping.
Use dark meat ground chicken for extra juiciness.
Avoid pressing down on patties while cooking to retain moisture.
