Low Carb 3-Ingredient Chicken Patties

1. Preheat your skillet over medium heat and give it a nice coat of non-stick spray or a swipe of olive oil.

2. While the skillet is warming up, grab a bowl and combine the ground chicken, egg, and cheese. If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle in some salt and pepper here too.

3. Once everything is mixed well, form the mixture into patties – you should get about 4 good-sized ones, but hey, you do you.

4. Gently place the patties in the preheated skillet and cook them for about 5 to 6 minutes per side. You’re looking for that golden-brown crust and internal temperature to reach 165°F – safety first, folks!

5. Once cooked through, remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest on a paper towel – just in case they’re feeling a little greasy.

6. Serve them hot and enjoy the feeling of being both a responsible adult and a kitchen rockstar.

Variations & Tips:

Don’t be shy, mix it up! Throw in some minced garlic or onion powder to the patty mix for an extra kick. Want some heat? A pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of cayenne will light up your tastebuds. If you’re all about that herb life, some chopped fresh parsley or basil can bring a fresh and zesty twist.

For all my meal-prepping warriors, double the batch and freeze half. Just lay the cooked patties flat in a freezer bag and voilà, you’ve got a homemade fast food option that’s truly fast and truly food. Just reheat and go!
