What it is
These are pre-formed patties made from seasoned chicken. They are designed for quick and easy preparation, offering a convenient way to enjoy chicken without the need for shaping or extensive seasoning. The patties are typically cooked until golden brown and heated through.
How people cook with it
These chicken patties are versatile and can be incorporated into many different dishes. They are a good choice for busy weeknights or when you need a fast meal solution.

- Side dish
To prepare, you can pan-fry the patties in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until they are fully cooked and browned. Alternatively, they can be baked in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) for safety. They are ready to serve once cooked through and are often placed in buns or served alongside vegetables.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to ground chicken, these patties are already shaped, saving preparation time. They also contain added seasonings, which can offer a more consistent flavor profile than homemade patties. Their uniform size makes cooking times predictable.

How to keep the rest
Refrigerate any unused patties promptly. Store them in their original packaging or an airtight container. They should be kept cold and consumed within a few days of opening to maintain freshness and quality. Proper storage is essential for food safety.
