White Cheddar and Spinach Chicken Burgers

I was at Costco the other day and I came across some premade Sabatino's Flame Broiled Aged White Cheddar and Spinach chicken patties that sounded just delicious. I decided to jot down the basic ingredients and go at a copycat recipe myself!

* I guess there has been some recent confusion so I wanted to clear it up that the ground chicken should be RAW, (like making a hamburger or turkey burger) pre-cooking it would prevent it from sticking together and it would get very dry when cooking it again.


1 1/4 lb ground chicken breast(pre ground or grind your own if you can)
2 oz fresh baby spinach(or frozen, thawed and drained)
1/2 small onion(It was mentioned that these burgers include caramelized onions, my family does not really care for them but if you enjoy them follow the directions HERE)
1 small clove garlic
2 stalks green onion
1 TB fresh parsley leaves

3 oz shredded aged white cheddar
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp soy sauce
1/4-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
salt to taste
1/4-1/2 cup bread crumbs


Wilt your baby spinach by pouring boiling water over it while in a colander in the sink(or thaw and drain your frozen spinach)
DRAIN WELL, squeeze if you need too.




In a food processor place onion, green onion, garlic, parsley and wilted spinach.
Pulse until it is fairly fine but you don't want puree.

Combine with chicken and remaining ingredients adding enough bread crumbs to make it stick together but not to your hands.










Form into patties and place on a well sprayed sheet of foil on a baking sheet.

Cover loosely with plastic and refrigerate for at least an hour.

Remove from fridge and broil  for 7-9  minutes on each side, until the meat reaches 165.















Serve on a bun (link for tasty ones), Top as you wish and enjoy!

Also fantastic with  swiss in place of the white cheddar!
