- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 egg
- 3 tbsp sun dried tomato divided
- 2 tsp oregano divided
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese divided
- 3 tbsp red onion finely chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream

- 4 brioche buns
Marry Me Chicken Burger
To a bowl combine ground chicken with the egg, 1 tbsp sun dried tomato, 1 tsp of oregano, salt and pepper, panko breadcrumb, 1/2 of parmesan cheese and 1 tbsp of chopped red onions.
Form into patties - they will be a little sticky. Trust the process for really moist chicken burger. Place chicken patties on parchment paper while you finish working the batch.
Pre-heat the grill, skillet or griddle then spray with oil. Cook for about 6 minutes on each side, or until golden and fully cooked. When done remove chicken burgers from heat, cover with foil while you work on the sauce.
Marry Me Chicken Sauce
In a small skillet heat oil. Briefly sauté the remaining red onions until slightly soft. Stir in remaining sun dried tomato and season with salt, pepper and oregano.
Whisk in heavy cream until everything is smooth and well incorporated. Stir in the cheese and simmer on low for a few minutes until the sauce starts to thicken (around 5 minutes)
Assemble the Burger
Layer fresh lettuce on the bottom half of a brioche bun, then place the chicken burger on top. Spoon a generous amount of Marry Me Chicken Sauce over the patty, then finish with sliced tomatoes, onions, or your favorite toppings. Add the top bun and serve immediately.
