- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 egg, lightly beaten

Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients: Start by chopping the spinach, onion, and garlic.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, shredded white cheddar cheese, diced onion, minced garlic, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, beaten egg, and breadcrumbs (if using).
- Form Patties: Gently mix all the ingredients until well combined. Shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties.
- Cook the Patties: Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Add a little oil if using a skillet to prevent sticking. Grill or pan-fry the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through.

- Prepare the Buns: While the burgers are cooking, toast the hamburger buns in the oven or on the grill for added crunch.
- Assemble: Place each cooked burger on a bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, and any additional toppings you prefer.
- Serve Warm: Enjoy your delicious White Cheddar and Spinach Chicken Burgers hot off the grill or skillet.
Notes
- Breadcrumbs are optional but help to bind the patties.
