    Ingredients

    I know, you are rolling your eyes at the heading. The ingredients list is mentioned in the recipe card so I won’t repeat it. We won’t go into surplus details. 

    Chicken Burger served on a plate.

    Juicy Chicken patty: 

    The chicken patty is very juicy due to the secret ingredient of mayonnaise. Actually, ground chicken lacks in fat. So the oil in mayonnaise give the ground chicken extra flavor and moisture. Find freezing and baking details in the recipe card.

    Caramelized onion:

    Caramelized onion add the absolutely subtle taste and texture to the burger. I've kept them moderately spicy as the chicken patty is very mild in taste. If you like more flavor add mushrooms too in the sauce. You'll love it.

    The burger sauce 

    The burger sauce is amazing and you can store it in frigde for 15 day to even a month. It is made with easy with pantry ingredients. If you like more options consider adding peri peri sauce, sweet chili sauce or you favourite sauce. Cucumber relish can also be a great addition. Chili garlic sauce is a desi favourite condiment similar to ketchup with extra garlic and red chilli flavors. You can also use this tomato jam.

    Veggies

    You can go crazy here though. I kept it simple with cucumber and tomato, but iceberg or salad leaves would taste great additions. I'd like some jelapoeno and olives too.

    Cheese options

    You can use sliced cheddar or burger cheese. Gouda, blue cheese or swiss cheese will also taste great.

    Bun options

    Use sesame or any of your favorite bun. The photo was taken with potato buns.

    How to make it?

    Making this homemade juicy chicken burger patty is very easy. You can make chicken patty 24 hours ahead and store in the fridge. You can freeze it too for later use.

    Juicy Chicken Patty

    Steps to make juicy chicken burger patty
    1. We need fine chicken mince so you might need to pulse the chicken mince a few times in the food processor for that very fine and pasty texture. (Alternatively, you can also add chicken breast chunks and pulse it until very smooth.) Simply combine all ingredients of the burger patty in the bowl.
    2. Apply little oil to the hand and mix it all together. The mixture will be sticky and you might get tempted to add more bread crumbs. But be patient and let it chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes. This allows the breadcrumbs to absorb excess moisture. The mixture will be easy to handle but still soft. That ok!
    3. Apply little oil again and roll seven patties out of the mixture. You can chill it again in the fridge so it firms up a bit.
    4. Or shallow fry in 2 tablesoon of oil right away. As soon as the chicken is cooked, the patty will be firm but juicy. Do not over-cook or the patty can dry out a bit. Freshly fried patties taste best.

    Caramelized Onions and Burger Sauce

    Steps to make caramelized onions and burger sauce.
    1. This is the straightaway recipe of caramelized onion that I serve with all my beef steaks and burgers. Just put the ingredients in the pot. Make sure to add very little oil as you can remove the excess.
    2. Saute on medium heat until the onions are soft and glossy. Yes, the glossy shine will tell you it's ready.
    3. The burger sauce is truly simple but tastes amazing. Gather all ingredients in a bowl.
    4. Just mix all ingredients and store them in a jar. You can store it in the fridge for 2 weeks or more until its taste and texture remain the same.

    Assembling

    Steps to assemble chicken burger.
    1. Assembling is quite visible in the collage. Choose any fresh and light burger buns. I used homemade potato buns. Apply sauce to the bun.
    2. Add caramelized onions and fried chicken patty.
    3. Add fresh veggies and cheese of your choice.
    4. And tada! You can grill it If you like it warm and crisp. Let the cheese melt too. Or just enjoy a soft juicy burger right away.

    FAQ

    How do you keep chicken patties from falling apart?

    Chicken patty needs a binding agent to keep it from falling apart. The binding agent could be bread crumbs, egg, or flour. We are using bread crumbs for binding in this recipe.

    Can you fry a chicken patty?

    You can shallow fry chicken patty with a few tablespoons of oil. If the chicken patty is frozen then fry on low heat flipping from time to time.

    Notes

    Ground chicken:
    • We need fine chicken mince so you might need to pulse the chicken mince few times in the food processor for that very fine and pasty texture.
    • These patties are freezer friendly and should be frozen raw. Line a tray with a baking sheet, and spread the uncooked patties on it. Freeze it. When patties are rock solid, transfer them to a freezer bag. Ideally, remove patties from the freezer 45 minutes ahead of frying. Or thaw overnight in the fridge before frying.
    • You can also bake frozen patties in the oven at 350 C for 17 minutes until golden. Flip halfway for even cooking. 
    Burger Sauce:
    You can store it in the fridge for 2 weeks or more until its taste and texture remain the same.
