Ingredients

• For the chicken patties, makes 3 large patties

  • 1 lb ground chicken breast

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • Olive or avocado oil cooking spray

• For the coating

  • 1 cup cornflakes

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp paprika

• For assembly

  • Light mayonnaise

  • Shredded iceberg lettuce

  • Brioche buns, high-fiber wraps or lettuce leaves

Directions

1. If baking, preheat the oven to 450°F.

2. In a bowl, mix the ground chicken with the dry spices until evenly combined.

3. Form into 3, ⅓ lb balls, wet hands first or the chicken will stick.

4. For the coating, add cornflakes and seasonings to a food processor and blend to a fine ground coating.

5. Add the coating to a plate and roll each ground chicken ball on the plate to coat it.

6. Once lightly coated, form the ball into a flat, round patty shape, ensure the entire patty is covered with coating.

7. Transfer the patty to a baking sheet lined with parchment. Lightly spray the patty with olive oil or avocado oil cooking spray.

8. Air fry at 375°F for 12-15 minutes, or bake at 450°F for 15-20 minutes until done. The patties are cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the coating is golden brown.
