  • If you don't have a meat grinder, you can ask your butcher to grind the chicken for you. You can also use a food processor, but be careful not to over-process the chicken, or it will become tough.
  • To ensure the burgers are cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
  • These burgers are best served immediately after cooking, but they can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pan-fry or bake the burgers until warmed through.
