Air Fryer Chicken Burgers are slightly crispy on the outside and juicy and moist on the inside. They are loaded with flavor and a great alternative to traditional beef burgers.

Ingredients

2 lb ground chicken
1 large egg
¼ cup parmesan cheese grated
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon basil
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup breadcrumbs

Instructions

Add ground chicken, egg, parmesan cheese and spices to a large bowl. Use a fork to mix thoroughly.
Add breadcrumbs. Use hands to mix in the breadcrumbs.
Shape approximately ½ cup of ground chicken mixture into a patty. Repeat with remaining mixture.
Lightly grease air fryer basket. Preheat air fryer to 400F. Add patties to air fryer and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165F. Rotate patties halfway through the cooking time. Remove from air fryer and serve immediately. Makes 8 burgers.

Notes

Make sure to grease the air fryer basket before adding the chicken burgers because this will ensure the burgers don't stick. I like to use olive oil cooking spray.

Do not overcook the patties because the chicken burgers will be dry if they are overcooked. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165F.

Air Fryer Chicken Burgers keep well in the fridge for up to three days. They can be reheated in the air fryer, microwave or on the stovetop.

Air Fryer Chicken Burgers freeze well. Place patties in a freezer safe container or bag. If using a bag, individually wrap the patties in plastic or parchment paper before placing them into a bag so they do not stick together. If using a container, use parchment paper to separate the patties. Freeze up to three months. Thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature. Reheat patties in the air fryer, microwave or on the stovetop.
