These juicy chicken and turkey patties are perfect even when baked in the oven.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 kg (1.1 lbs) ground chicken
  • 1/2 kg (1.1 lbs) ground turkey
  • 2 onions
  • 1 large zucchini or 2 small ones
  • 3 cloves of garlic (optional; many people with Crohn's disease might want to skip it)
  • A handful of parsley
  • 2 eggs
  • 4-5 tablespoons breadcrumbs

For Seasoning:

  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Turmeric
  • Cumin

Makes 25-30 patties

Instructions:

  1. Chop Vegetables:

    Finely chop all the vegetables using a food processor.

  2. Mix Ingredients:

    In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients and spices until you have a uniform mixture.

  3. Chill the Mixture:

    Place the mixture in the refrigerator for an hour to allow the flavors to meld.

  4. Prepare for Cooking:

    Take the mixture out of the refrigerator and mix it again.

  5. Cooking Methods:

  • Air Fryer: This method is healthier and avoids the smell of frying. Use the air fryer function.
  • Frying: Heat a skillet, add 3 tablespoons of olive oil, and fry the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side.
  • Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place the patties on it with space between each one, spray with olive oil, and bake for 30 minutes (baking time may vary between ovens).
  • Ninja Grill: Select the Air Fry program, set the temperature to 180°C (356°F), and cook for 15 minutes. Place the patties, spray with olive oil, and close the lid. After 7 minutes, flip the patties and spray the other side with olive oil.
  1. Rest the Patties:

    Let the patties rest for a few minutes before serving.

  2. Serve:
