Ingredients:
500g of lean chicken mince (can also use turkey)
1-2 eggs
1 cup of almond flour (1/2 for the patty mixture and 1/2 for coating)
1/4 cup coconut milk or almond milk or oat milk
2-3 teaspoons of garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons of dill
Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
In a large bowl, combine the lean chicken mince, half of the almond flour, coconut milk (or any milk alternative of your choice), garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, dill, salt, and pepper. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape them into patties. Use the remaining almond flour to coat each patty, ensuring a delightful crispy texture when cooked. If needed, you can add more almond flour for coating.
In a frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of ghee or olive oil over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the chicken patties and cook for approximately 5 minutes on each side or until they achieve a golden brown color and are cooked through.
For meal prepping, these patties can be conveniently frozen individually for up to 2-3 weeks. Simply thaw one out the night before work and enjoy it with a fresh salad for a quick and nutritious lunch.
