How to make chicken patties less dry? ›

Olive oil– The secret ingredient to ensure these burgers turn out extra juicy every time. The extra oil helps keep the insides juicy and moist, so you'll be craving burgers every single time.

Add more healthy fat to your ground chicken.

Marinating the chicken in a full fat yogurt or canned coconut milk can do it wonders. Depending on what you're making, you can even add it into the cooking stage. For example, mixing yogurt into a chicken meatball, meatloaf, burger (you get the idea) is a game changer.

You can experiment with various flavors such as Italian herbs, garlic powder, or even a simple salt and pepper combination. If using the oven, carefully place the baking sheet with the chicken patties on the middle rack. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or follow the instructions on the package.

A little extra moisture helps even well-done burgers stay juicy and tender, even if they're made from 90% lean ground beef. Mix in 1/4-1/2 cup water per pound of ground beef before forming your patties to reap the tenderizing benefit of H20. Some chefs tuck an ice cube into the middle of the patty for the same effect.

Pounding helps tenderize the meat by breaking down its tough fibers. It also thins it out for more even cooking. Do this before frying, grilling, or roasting for better retention of moisture content. To tenderize chicken breast, place the meat on a durable, flat surface.

The best tenderizer though, is a salted yogurt marinade. The salt has the same effect as in a regular brine, but the lactic acid in the yogurt further tenderizes the meat. A 15-minute marinade with one cup of yogurt and one teaspoon of salt makes for the most tender chicken breasts imaginable.

Don't settle for dry, boring chicken breasts. One simple ingredient will add flavor and keep them from drying out every time: mayo. You read that correctly, mayonnaise isn't just for sandwiches and macaroni salads. Oh no, it's great for ensuring juicy, tender chicken too.

Another reason your fried chicken is turning out soggy is that the oil temperature is falling below the ideal frying level, which is right around (or slightly above) 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Spread frozen patties on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes. Pan Fry: Heat vegetable oil (1/8″) in skillet until hot. Fry patties in the hot oil over medium heat 10-12 minutes, turning over after 5-6 minutes. Patties should be golden brown on both sides.

What pairs well with chicken patties? ›

Our original recipe for almost 60 years. A boneless breast of chicken seasoned to perfection, freshly breaded, pressure cooked in 100% refined peanut oil and served on a toasted, buttery bun with dill pickle chips.

This method applies to chicken specifically. For properly cooked chicken, if you cut into it and the juices run clear, then the chicken is fully cooked. If the juices are red or have a pinkish color, your chicken may need to be cooked a bit longer.

Adding sun-dried tomato oil to your chicken patties transforms your burgers. It provides much-needed moisture as well as that sweet tomatoey flavor. It's sure to make your chicken burgers taste sophisticated.

Moisture: Introduce moisture to the chicken to help soften it. You can do this by marinating the cooked chicken in a sauce or broth for a while. This can help rehydrate the meat and add some flavor. Just be careful not to over-marinate, as the chicken could become mushy.
