→ For Cooking and Serving

20 ml olive oil, for brushing

# Steps to Follow:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, Italian breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chicken bouillon powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just evenly incorporated; avoid over-mixing.
02 -
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each into a compact ball, then flatten gently to form a patty slightly larger than the buns. Use your hands to round the edges. Place patties onto a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm.
03 -
Preheat the air fryer to 190°C for 4-5 minutes.
04 -
Brush the air fryer basket with olive oil. Arrange patties in a single layer in the basket. Brush the surface of the patties lightly with olive oil. Air fry at 190°C for 12-14 minutes, flipping halfway and brushing the other side with olive oil, until golden and the internal temperature reaches 74°C.
05 -
Transfer cooked patties to a plate and allow to rest for 2-3 minutes. For serving, layer lettuce, a chicken patty, and a tomato slice on each bun. Finish with mayonnaise or garlic aioli and serve immediately.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Refrigerating formed patties helps them retain shape and juiciness during air frying.
02 -
Always check that chicken is cooked through; use a meat thermometer to confirm an internal temperature of 74°C.
03 -
To store leftovers, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze uncooked patties separated by parchment for up to 1 month.
