Notes
For this recipe, you can use ground chicken breasts or thighs. The presence of fat in the meat helps in handling it more easily—it reduces stickiness while mixing the ingredients and shaping them into patties. If the mixture becomes too sticky to handle, simply moisten your hands with water or chill it in the fridge for a while to firm it up.
