Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until just combined — do not overwork the mixture or the patties will be dense. Divide into 4 equal portions and press each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick, making a slight indent in the center of each with your thumb to prevent puffing.

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the patties and cook undisturbed for 5 minutes, until the undersides are deep golden brown and release easily from the pan. Flip and cook for another 5–6 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) on an instant-read thermometer.
