Ingredients

  • 2 eggs large
  • 4 oz chicken breast skinless, boneless, cooked & shredded
  • ½ cup broccoli chopped
  • ¼ onion chopped
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 tsp Coconut Amino
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 green onion tops only, chopped
  • 4 egg whites

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken breast, chopped broccoli, chopped onion, 2 large eggs, 4 egg whites, coconut aminos, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir until everything is evenly mixed together.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add approximately one third cup of the mixture to the pan and press it gently into a round patty shape.
  • Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the edges look set and the bottom is lightly golden. Carefully flip and cook the other side for another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining mixture, adding the second tablespoon of avocado oil as needed between batches.
  • Top each patty with the chopped green onion tops before serving.
