  • Total Time: 16 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground chicken
– 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
– ½ cup white cheddar cheese, shredded
– ½ cup breadcrumbs (whole wheat or gluten-free)

– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ¼ teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

Instructions

Making Healthy White Cheddar Spinach Chicken Burgers is simple if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and preheat your grill or stovetop pan over medium heat.

2. Mix Chicken and Spinach: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, and shredded white cheddar cheese.

3. Add Binders and Flavorings: Add the breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix everything gently until well incorporated.

4. Form Patties: Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into patties, about ¾ inch thick.

5. Cook: Lightly coat your grill or pan with olive oil. Place patties on the hot surface and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

6. Melt Cheese: In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of white cheddar on each patty and cover to help it melt.

7. Rest: Let the burgers rest for a couple of minutes before serving to retain their juiciness.

8. Serve: Place the cooked burgers on your choice of buns or serve over a bed of greens.

By following these straightforward steps, you’ll have delicious and healthy burgers ready in no time!
