Ingredients
For Chicken Patties
- 1 pound ground chicken
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon marinara sauce
- ½ cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs for coating patties
- 2 tablespoon olive oil for frying
For the Chicken Parmwich
- 6 round bread rolls cut in half
- 6 slices fresh mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 to 1 cup marinara sauce
- arugula optional
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients for the chicken patties in a medium size bowl, excluding the last 2 ingredients. Mix everything together until well incorporated. This mixture should make 6 patties, so divide the mixture equally into 6 and form them into 3 or 4 inch patties.
- Add the 1 cup of breadcrumbs to a shallow plate and dredge the chicken patties through the breadcrumbs.
- Add 1 tbsp of the olive oil to a large skillet and heat it over medium high heat. You'll have to do this in 2 batches, so add 3 of the patties to the skillet and cook on both sides for about 5 minutes per side or until golden brown and the chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken patties to a plate and set aside. Add the remaining tbsp of olive oil to the skillet and continue frying the last 3 patties.
- Top each chicken patty with 2 tbsp or 3 tbsp of marinara sauce, and a slice of fresh mozzarella cheese. Place the patties on a baking sheet and place under the broiler for 2 minutes or until the cheese is starting to melt.
- Assemble the sandwiches by adding some arugula to the bottom of the bun, then a chicken patty and then the top of the bun. Serve while patties are warm.
Notes
- These can be made with ground turkey, pork, beef, or whatever type of ground meat you prefer.
- If you can't find Panko breadcrumbs, regular breadcrumbs or even crushed up corn flakes would work.
- To bake these, preheat your oven to 400 F degrees. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the chicken patties on the baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes, flipping them over half way through, or until golden brown.
