Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well using your hands or a spoon until combined but don’t overwork the mixture.
- Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick. Use your thumb to make a small indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.
Cooking
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken patties to the skillet.
- Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the patties are golden brown.
Assembly
- While the patties cook, lightly toast the burger buns in a separate pan or under the broiler until golden.
- Assemble your burgers by placing a chicken patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with lettuce, sliced tomatoes, red onion, and pickles. Finish with the top bun.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious flavors.
