# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Main

01 - 1.5 pounds ground chicken
02 - 0.5 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
03 - 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
04 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
05 - 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
06 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
07 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
08 - 0.5 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
09 - 0.5 teaspoon paprika
10 - 1 teaspoon salt
11 - 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
12 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

→ For serving (optional)

13 - 4 burger buns
14 - 4 leaves lettuce
15 - 4 slices tomato
16 - 0.25 cup garlic aioli or mayonnaise

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, Italian breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, chicken bouillon powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just evenly combined, avoiding overmixing to maintain moisture.
02 - Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions, shape each into a ball, then flatten into patties with rounded edges slightly larger than your burger buns. Place patties on parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
03 - Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 4 to 5 minutes. Lightly brush the air fryer basket with olive oil to prevent sticking.
04 - Arrange patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Brush the tops with olive oil and cook for 6 minutes. Flip patties, brush the other sides with olive oil, then cook an additional 6 to 8 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
05 - Remove patties from the air fryer and let rest for a few minutes. Serve as desired, either plain or assembled on burger buns with lettuce, tomato, and garlic aioli or mayonnaise.

# Extra Tips & Details:

01 - Use a meat thermometer to ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F for safe consumption.
02 - Chilling the patties before cooking helps them hold their shape in the air fryer.
03 - Patties will shrink slightly during cooking; form them larger than your buns.
