  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground Chicken
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 tablespoon Everything Bagel Seasoning
  • 1 cup Panko Breadcrumbs

Burger Assembly

  • 2 Burger Buns
  • Toppings and Condiments of choice (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayo, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and everything bagel seasoning. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Add Cheese and Breadcrumbs: Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese and panko breadcrumbs to the chicken mixture, ensuring even distribution to help bind the burgers and add flavor.
  3. Form Patties: Divide the mixture into 2 or 3 equal portions depending on desired patty size. Shape each portion into an even, round patty for consistent cooking.
  4. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (approximately 199°C). This usually takes 1-2 minutes and ensures the patties cook evenly.
  5. Cook Patties: Place the chicken patties in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overcrowd. Cook for 5 minutes until the bottoms are lightly browned, then flip each patty over and cook for an additional 5 minutes until fully cooked and browned on both sides.
  6. Serve: Remove the cooked chicken burgers from the air fryer and place them on burger buns. Add your favorite toppings and condiments, then serve immediately for a delicious meal.

Notes

  • Make sure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety.
  • Using panko breadcrumbs helps create a light, crispy texture in the burger patties.
  • Customize the seasoning blend to suit your taste by adding herbs like parsley or spices like smoked paprika.
  • Preheating the air fryer is key to achieving a nice sear and even cooking.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook patties in batches if needed for best results.
