Chicken patties
They are one of my go-to simple dishes! These meals are delightfully crisp, succulent, and brimming with taste, which makes them ideal for any time during the day or even batch cooking. I enjoy filling them into a freshly baked, home-made
pita bread
with a drizzle of
tahini yogurt sauce
—absolute heaven! Whether you
pan-fry
,
bake
, or
air-fry
They ensure these burgers are always incredibly tasty.
Ingredient Notes
-
Ground Chicken
– Opt for lean ground chicken as a more health-conscious choice. You could also use ground turkey instead. -
Onion & Garlic
— Shredded onion provides moisture; garlic boosts the taste. -
Carrot
— Adds natural sweetness and maintains the tenderness of the patties. -
Breadcrumbs
— Aids in binding the patties. Opt for gluten-free breadcrumbs to make it gluten-free. -
Egg
— Serves as a binding agent to keep the burgers assembled. -
Dijon Mustard
– Provides a mild zest and rich taste.

Air Fryer Chicken Patties
To add a healthier touch, prepare these chicken cutlets using an air fryer instead! Begin by preheating your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Give the basket a light coating of oil before placing the cutlets in a single layer inside. Cook them for 12-15 minutes, turning once midway. This technique yields crisp, perfectly browned pieces while cutting down on excess fat!
Recipe Variations
-
Turkey Patties
– Use ground turkey instead of chicken for a healthier choice. -
Gluten-Free Patties
– Opt for gluten-free breadcrumbs or almond flour instead. -
Spicy Chicken Patties
– Include additional cayenne pepper or chili flakes. -
Veggie Boost
— Stir in shredded zucchini or spinach for added nutrients. -
Cheesy Patties
– Stir in some shredded mozzarella or feta cheese to create a gooey middle.
Ways to Prepare Chicken Patties
I enjoy serving these patties alongside two of my favorite dips:
spicy mayo
and
tahini yogurt sauce
(the full recipe is available on the recipe card). Each one is incredibly simple to prepare and complements the savory burgers beautifully. They can also be served alongside:
-
Tzatziki
-
Pita bread
-
Beetroot and chickpea salad
-
Edamame salad
-
Garlic Naan
How to Store
-
Keep extra chicken patties in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to
4 days
For optimal texture, warm up in either the oven or an air fryer. -
To freeze, arrange patties on a baking tray, let them freeze completely, and subsequently move them into a freezer bag for storage of up to
3 months
Reheat directly from frozen using either an air fryer or an oven.
