• Spread remaining 1/4 cup bread crumbs into a shallow dish. Roll patties in bread crumbs to coat.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients until well blended.

• When I have these on a bun, I use pasta or pizza sauce as a condiment instead of the usual burger toppings.

ITALIAN CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine ground chicken, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup marinara sauce, onion, garlic, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper and stir with a large spoon (or mix w/ your hands) until evenly mixed. Form the mixture into 4 patties.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Place patties in the skillet and cook until golden brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Alternatively, grill the burgers for 4 minutes per side or until no longer pink.
• Flip the patties, then immediately pour remaining marinara around them in the pan. Bring marinara to a simmer, reducing heat if the sauce is bubbling too rapidly. Top each patty with mozzarella, then cover pan and cook until cheese melts and chicken burger is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes more.
• While the chicken is finishing cooking, gently toast buttered hamburger buns in a 350°F oven until buns are warmed through and lightly crispy, about 5 minutes.
• To assemble the burgers, spoon extra sauce from the skillet onto the bottom halves of the burger buns and place burgers on top. Garnish with basil and top with remaining bun halves. Serve immediately and enjoy!
