easy chicken patties

Delicious, moist and juicy Mediterranean chicken patties have everything you want in one bite: protein, veggies, herbs, and they're quick and easy to make.

Mediterranean Chicken Patties

olive oil, divided

onion,

garlic, minced

baby spinach, chopped

chicken

breadcrumbs

Greek yogurt

dill,

lemon juice (from half lemon)

oregano

teaspoon paprika

cumin

teaspoon salt

teaspoon ground black pepper

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat for 2 minutes until sizzling hot. Sauté onions and garlic until tender and nicely browned, about 2-3 minutes.

Add spinach and sauté for 1 minute until soft. Set aside on a plate to cool for 5 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, add ground chicken, sautéed onion-spinach mixture, breadcrumbs, Greek yogurt, dill, lemon juice, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir well with a spatula to combine everything together (or use your hands to press the ingredients together to evenly combine).

Shape the ground chicken mixture into a firm ball. This helps the mixture bind together to yield firm patties. Cover the bowl with plastic cling wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.

Take 1/2 cup chicken mixture at a time and shape into patties using your hands. You should get about 12 patties.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes until sizzling hot. Place patties  on the skillet (about 6 pieces per batch) and cook for 3-5 minutes until nicely seared and starting to brown up the sides. Flip the patties over and cook for another 3-5 minutes, until the internal temperature for the patties reaches 165 F as read on a meat thermometer.

Serve warm with a side of rice pilaf and sautéed vegetables, or serve in hamburger buns.

Love this recipe. Make it with ground turkey, gluten free toasted bread for the bread crumbs, Absolutely Fabulous! Garcia Mille recipe inventor.

It was so delicious!! Followed the recipe to the tee other than I added in a small amount of red pepper flakes. Served it with tzatziki and a side of brussel sprouts with lemon orzo. The whole family loved it. Will definitely make again
