Homemade Burgers - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute ground beef for chicken. Keep in mind that beef has a different fat content, so the cooking time might vary slightly. Ensure the internal temperature of the patty reaches 160°F (71°C) for food safety.
No problem! You can use a combination of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of cayenne pepper for heat. A total of about 1 to 1.5 teaspoons of your own mix should work well to replace the chicken spice.
The recipe is naturally gluten-free as written. Just ensure that any condiments you use, like ketchup or mustard, are certified gluten-free if that's a concern. Also, serve the burger in a gluten-free bun or over a bed of lettuce for a low-carb option.
Absolutely! You can prepare the uncooked patties a day in advance. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator with a piece of parchment paper between each one to prevent sticking. Let them come to room temperature for about 15 minutes before cooking.
Store any leftover cooked patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them gently in a skillet over medium heat or in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through. I don't recommend freezing the assembled burgers, but the cooked patties alone freeze well for up to 2 months.
This usually happens if the mixture is too wet. Make sure to squeeze out any excess liquid from your cooked minced chicken if you're using that. Also, ensure you're mixing the ingredients thoroughly so the fat and proteins bind together. Chilling the mixture for 30 minutes before forming the patties can also help them hold their shape.
Yes! You can grill the patties on an outdoor grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through. You can also bake them on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 400°F (200°C) for approximately 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
They're great with a classic side! Think crispy oven-baked fries, a simple green salad, or some coleslaw. For a lighter meal, a side of fresh fruit like watermelon or a simple cucumber salad is also fantastic.
