These juicy Ground Chicken Burgers are easy to make, budget-friendly, and perfect for grilling. A leaner weeknight favorite that’s big on flavor!

Ingredients
1 Tbsp cooking oil ($0.04)
¼ cup yellow onion (minced, $0.20)
1 lb. ground chicken ($3.42)
¼ cup panko breadcrumbs ($0.12)
2 Tbsp mayonnaise ($0.14)
1 Tbsp fresh parsley (minced, $0.17)
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce ($0.02)
½ tsp salt ($0.02)
½ tsp garlic powder ($0.08)
¼ tsp black pepper (freshly cracked, $0.04)
4 hamburger buns ($0.73)
red onion (sliced, $0.57)
lettuce ($0.15)
tomato (sliced, $0.25)
pickles ($0.41)
Instructions
1 Gather your ingredients and preheat your grill or grill pan to medium heat (about 400°F).
2 Sauté the onion
3 Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the minced onion and sauté for 2–3 minutes, until soft and fragrant. Remove from heat.
4 Mix the meat
5 In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, sautéed onion, panko, mayo, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix just until combined—don’t overwork the meat.
6 Make the patties
7 Divide the mixture into four equal portions (about 4 oz each). Gently shape into patties and press a shallow indent into the center of each one with your thumb to help them cook evenly and avoid puffing up.
8 Toast the buns
9 Place buns cut-side down on the hot grill for 1–2 minutes, until lightly golden and crisp. Set aside.
10 Cook the patties
11 Grill the patties for 4–5 minutes per side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
12 Make the burgers
13 Let the burgers rest for a few minutes off the heat so the juices can redistribute. Then serve on toasted buns with your favorite toppings (I went with red onion, lettuce, tomato, and pickles). Enjoy!
