Instructions
- Chicken Burgers. In a bowl mix the chicken, Panko, chipotle in adobo, paprika, 1 teaspoon chili powder, salt, and pepper. Form into 4 burgers.
- Air Fryer Instructions. Preheat the air fryer to 360°F. Spay the air fryer basket with cooking oil to prevent sticking. Cook chicken patties for 8-10 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Sauce. While the chicken burgers are cooking, mix together mayo, chipotle, and sweet chili sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Assemble Burgers. Place chicken burgers on a toasted bun with cheese, bacon, sliced tomatoes, lettuce, and chipotle sauce.
Notes
- Don't overcook the chicken patties or they will become dry and tough. Burgers are done when they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Storage: Refrigerate cooked chicken patties in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- Make these burgers low-carb by wrapping them in lettuce.
