  • 1 small jalapeño, finely diced (seeds removed for less heat)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup finely chopped red onion
  • ¼ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1½ teaspoons smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Mix the Burger Patties: In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, jalapeño, garlic, red onion, breadcrumbs, egg, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. Form Patties: Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
