Ingredients to Make Chicken Patties
- Ground Chicken: Ground chicken can be tricky to know when it’s done just by looking at it. Make sure to use an internal meat thermometer and check to make sure that it’s 165 degrees before you eat it!
- Breadcrumbs: You can use regular breadcrumbs or Italian flavored breadcrumbs in this recipe.
- Garlic Powder: This adds a lot of delicious flavor into the meat.
- Salt and Pepper: These will enhance all of the flavors in the recipe.
- Egg: I always try and use large eggs when I am cooking.
- Mayonnaise: The mayo keeps the patties moist.
- Worcestershire: I love adding some depth with this sauce.
- Green Onions: Use these to add flavor in the patties and also to garnish the top!
- Flour: I used all purpose flour in this recipe.
How to Make Homemade Chicken Patties
These chicken patties are a quick recipe to put together that yields insanely delicious results! Give them a try and you will soon have your new go-to recipe for any occasion!
- Combine: Add ground chicken, breadcrumbs, garlic, salt, pepper, egg, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, and green onion. Mix until incorporated.
- Form: Shape into 6-8 patties and heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook: Coat the patties in the flour and then add them to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Cooking Tips
To help you make sure that your chicken patties turn out perfectly, I have a few tips for you to try out! But beware, once you cook these once, you will be hooked!
- Don’t crowd the skillet: Don’t try to cram too many patties in to cook at once. Just do 2-3 at a time and they will be easier to flip.
- Use a meat thermometer: When you are cooking with ground chicken it can be tricky to tell when it’s done just by looking at it. Use an internal meat thermometer and when the chicken reaches 165 degrees fahrenheit then they chicken patties are good to eat!
- Medium heat: Don’t let your stove get too hot or your patties will burn. Taking a little more time to cook them on a medium heat setting instead of high will be worth it for that crispy, juicy crunch!
How to Store and Reheat Leftovers
- In the Fridge: Once they have cooled, you can store your leftover chicken patties in an airtight container in your fridge for 3-4 days.
- To Reheat: I like to reheat my patties in the air fryer so they are nice and cripsy again! Cook them for 3-4 minutes at 350 degrees, flip and then cook for another 3-4 minutes. You can also reheat them on the skillet for a few minutes on low until they are heated throughout.

Great recipe! I had some ground chicken & found this recipe. It was a hit.
These are so good and quick. I used gluten free bread crumbs in place of the regular ones and the flour but just 1/3 of a cup. 2 lbs of chicken. I only have a mini food processor so ground the chiken one lb at a time and stirred the ingredients together with one egg instead of two. I made a little sauce with 1/2 cup of french dressing and a quarter cup of no sugar added ketchup. Was so good!! Thanks for the great recipe. You can use them to make chicken burgers which I am going to do with the extra ones I made. So fun!
These are great!! I make a double batch and freeze them. I also make a garlic aioli that brings these to the next level!! Thank you for a great recipe!
You’re welcome! I LOVE garlic aioli! What a great idea.
These are delicious! Today will be my 3rd time making them. They are extremely moist when trying to form them. But they come out perfect. Total YUM!!!!
What do you think about air frying these? Do you think it would get the same texture?
That should work! Try cooking them at 360 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
