A Classic Chicken Burger

Cheesey, Crispy, Chicken Burgers with some Garlic Fries

Easy chicken burgers made from scratch with simple Italian herbs, fresh lettuce and some grated cheese. Today I am swapping back into sharing recipes that my husband loves. We have been making crispy chicken burgers quite a bit in my home on Saturday nights as they are easy to eat and watch movies. Chicken burgers are great with some chips and garlic fries (garlic fries recipe posted), but you could also serve it with your favorite side.

Crispy chicken patty is the best part of the burger, can be tried with sandwich or wraps, they make every twist taste better! And because they make a lot, they are also great to make ahead for meal prep.

Are they healthy? Can be healthy - Since I have only used bread, protein packed chicken, mustard, some mayonnaise and extra greens. They are so yummy and a definite crowd pleaser. If you’re hosting a party for the big game, you shouldn’t miss to add this yumminess in your menu. The ingredients are just mixed in a right proportion with the chicken – making it extra tender from inside and super crispy from the outside with way less oil.

A delicious recipe perfect for weekend meals, easy cleanup and have all the flavors.
