Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, fresh spinach, crumbled feta, and seasonings like salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, along with mayonnaise. Use your hands to gently mix until just combined, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Once the mixture is ready, divide it into five equal portions, each weighing around 3.5 ounces. Shape each patty gently using a measuring cup lined with plastic wrap.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the cooking oil. When the oil shimmers, add the patties and cover. Cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Carefully flip the burgers and cook uncovered for another 4-5 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 155-160°F.
  5. Transfer the cooked patties to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving on whole-grain buns or lettuce wraps with your favorite toppings.
