Description

Delightful chicken patties made with creamy cottage cheese and tender ground chicken, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Olive oil (for cooking)

Instructions

  1. Combine the ground chicken, cottage cheese, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning in a large bowl. Stir until well combined.
  2. Form the mixture into patties about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) for baking. Place the patties on a greased baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat for pan-frying. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for air-frying. Air-fry the patties for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway.
  6. Serve warm, garnished with your choice of dipping sauces or fresh herbs.

Notes

Make-ahead by refrigerating the mixture for up to 24 hours before cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
