How to Make Chicken Patties?
Homemade chicken patties are extremely easy to make. They are made of the following ingredients:
- Ground chicken, 90% lean with 10% fat.
- Chopped scallions.
- Cooking wine. I used Japanese Mirin or sweet rice wine.
- Toasted sesame oil.
- Cayenne pepper to make it slightly spicy.
- Salt and pepper.
To make the patty mixture, just combine all the ingredients together. To shape the chicken patties, wet both hands with water.
Scoop up with an ice cream scoop and shape the ground chicken mixture into a ball, flatten with hands and pan-fry with a little bit of oil.
Cooking Tips
The best chicken patties should be juicy and moist. However, most store-bought patties such as Costco, Foster Farms are all breaded, dry and tasteless.
Follow my cooking tips, techniques and secrets below for the best ever homemade chicken patties.
- DO NOT use breadcrumbs or panko in the ingredients. Breadcrumbs soak up the natural juice in the ground chicken, making the patty dry with a grainy texture. DO NOT coat the patties with breadcrumbs, too.
- Shallow fry the patties on a skillet with just a little bit of cooking oil. DO NOT deep fry.
- Add 1 tablespoon of cooking wine (you can use white wine or Japanese sweet rice wine “mirin”) into the ground chicken mixture. This will ensure that the patties are bursting with juicy flavors.
