- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 bunch green onions, chopped, or to taste
- 2 egg whites
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped, or to taste
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 tablespoon ground dried chipotle pepper
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 cups dry bread crumbs
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder, or to taste
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Avocado Sour Cream Spread:
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/2 cup sour cream, or to taste
- Combine ground chicken, green onions, egg whites, cilantro, jalapenos, 1 1/2 tablespoons sour cream, chipotle pepper, salt, and pepper in large bowl. Mix until sticky and difficult to handle.
- Shape ground chicken mixture into patties. Combine bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat patties lightly with seasoned bread crumbs.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook patties until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Mash avocado and 1/2 cup sour cream together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Spread over chicken patties.
