Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and form into 4 equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 75°C/165°F).

  3. 3

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on a separate skillet or in a toaster.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked chicken patty, slices of heirloom tomato, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Cook the Fries

    Prepare fries according to package instructions if using frozen, or fry fresh potatoes until golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the classic chicken burger alongside the fries.
