Ingredients
  

1 lb ground chicken

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1 egg

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp paprika

1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)

Burger buns

Lettuce, tomato, and avocado (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prep the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, white cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

    Form the Patties: Divide the mixture into equal portions (about 4-5). Shape each portion into a burger patty, ensuring they are slightly thicker in the center to avoid overcooking the edges.

      Preheat the Skillet: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken patties.

        Cook the Burgers: Cook each side for about 5-6 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and is no longer pink in the center. Avoid pressing down on the patties to ensure they remain juicy.

          Toast the Buns (optional): While the patties are cooking, you can toast the burger buns in a separate pan or under the broiler for a minute or two until golden brown.

            Assemble the Burgers: Once the chicken patties are cooked, place them on the toasted buns. Top with fresh lettuce, slices of tomato, and avocado as desired.

              Serve and Enjoy: Serve your Cheesy Spinach Stuffed Chicken Burgers hot with your favorite dipping sauces or sides!
