A grilled chicken burger can be made with varied items. It can be made by either simply grilling a boneless chicken breast or a chicken thigh, or it can alternatively be made using a patty formed minced chicken. The mince is flavoured with garlic and other optional marinades; some also add an egg or two for binding it. A burger can include several different toppings, usually sliced. The most common toppings would be onions, tomatoes and lettuce. All of this is wrapped inside a toasted bun with a dip like mayonnaise spread into it.

Recipe Note
Do not flip your patties too often, as it might make them dry. The steam at the end is added for the cheese to melt properly. Make sure to toast your buns or they might end up getting soggy.
