  • 1 cup grated carrot packed
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped spinach or zucchini squeezed dry
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion

Method
 

  1. Mix chicken, grated carrot, chopped greens, onion, egg, breadcrumbs, and seasonings in a bowl until combined.
  2. Form into 4 patties. Chill 10 minutes if you have time; it helps them hold shape.
