Notes
Don't overmix: Gently combine ingredients to keep the patties tender and avoid a dense texture.
Chill the mixture: Refrigerate the chicken mixture for 15 to 30 minutes before forming patties to help them hold their shape better.
Uniform size: Ensure patties are of equal size for even cooking.
Press a dimple: Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.
Resting time: Let cooked patties rest for a few minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute and enhance flavor.
