It’s the beginning of the week, you still haven’t had any time to shop for groceries, but you need something on the dinner table in less than 20 minutes. Haven’t we all been there before? Personally, burgers are always one of our “go to” meal option when pantry pickings are slim and we have no plans for dinner. They are easy to make, only require a few ingredients, and can be served alongside a wide variety of side dishes. Burgers are a great fall back when you need dinner on the table quickly!
As much as a plain burger fits the bill on busy nights though, sometimes it’s nice to spruce things up. One of the great things about ground meat, especially ground chicken or ground turkey is they are a blank canvas. They are mild in flavor, so its very simple to add whatever seasonings and ingredients for fun changes. While the family might not be thrilled to hear they are having burgers for dinner (again), adding a few ingredients that are packed with flavor might just make them look forward to the meal.
These keto spinach and artichoke chicken burgers are so bright with flavor, but are just as easy to make as any other regular burger. The tang and brightness of the lemon, added color and nutrients from the fresh spinach, the crunch of the red onion, and the unexpected texture from the artichokes. This is a recipe that screams Spring and Summer, but will be enjoyed throughout the entire year!
Saute artichokes, spinach, red onion, and garlic in olive oil or butter. Cook just until fragrant, softened and heated through. Let cool completely.
Combine cooked and cooled vegetables, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and ground chicken in a large bowl. Use your hands to thoroughly mix ingredients together. Form patties and cook in a cast iron skillet until golden brown on both sides.
These low carb chicken burgers are best served as a lettuce wrap, but can also be served alongside any veggies of choice. Top with a mild cheese, thinly sliced tomato, red onions, and homemade tzatziki sauce.
These keto chicken patties are loaded with bright flavors, anything else added to them is a bonus. For texture and even more flavor you can add sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, tzatziki sauce, and an extra squeeze of lemon. Sliced kalamata olives would also be great with the burgers.
Yes! You can also use ground turkey, ground pork, or even ground beef. The fat content in meats will also help provide more flavor and richness. If you want something light and fresh, go for ground chicken or ground turkey which are more mild in flavor as well.
