Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped green onions, egg whites, fresh cilantro, finely chopped jalapeno, 1 1/2 tablespoons of sour cream, ground chipotle pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until the mixture becomes sticky and slightly difficult to handle. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

02

Step

Shape the ground chicken mixture into patties, ensuring they are uniform in size and thickness for even cooking. In a separate bowl, combine the bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lightly coat each patty with the seasoned bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere. (Prep time: 15 minutes)

03

Step

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd. Cook for approximately 2 minutes per side, until browned and slightly crispy. (Cook time: 4 minutes)

04

Step

Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the skillet and continue cooking the patties until they are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. This should take about 4 minutes per side. For accuracy, an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). (Cook time: 8 minutes)

05

Step

While the patties are cooking, prepare the Avocado Sour Cream Spread. In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado until smooth. Add 1/2 cup of sour cream, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well until you achieve a creamy and well-combined consistency. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

06

Step

Once the chicken patties are cooked through, remove them from the skillet and place them on a serving plate. Generously spread the Avocado Sour Cream Spread over each patty. Serve immediately and savor the delightful combination of flavors!

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a dash of lime juice to the Avocado Sour Cream Spread.
If you prefer a spicier kick, leave some seeds in the jalapeno or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture.
These patties are also delicious served on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as crisp lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and Monterey Jack cheese.

    The patties were a little dry, maybe adding some diced onion would help?
