Love chicken patties, but hate the chemicals and preservatives in the store-bought version? Try my recipe for homemade chicken patties and you’ll never buy the packaged variety again.

I’m always searching for quick, easy AND homemade dinners that taste great. I don’t like to serve my family a great deal of premade meals. They taste disgusting and they are terrible for you, too. However, chicken patties are a favorite around here.

In the past, I would occasionally pick up a package as a sort of treat for the kids, but, I haven’t bought a package in years.

Why?

Because I figured out how to make my own at home and I’m so glad I did. My homemade chicken patties are so simple to make and the whole family loves them!

It’s a great recipe to make on a busy night and you could even make mini chicken patties to serve as an appetizer as your next dinner party.

All you need to make these homemade chicken patties is chicken (obviously!), a few random pantry ingredients and about 45 minutes. Plus, you can customize them however you like.

Feel free to use different flavors of breadcrumbs or a variety of spices. You could even add barbecue sauce or hot sauce if you want to add even more flavor.

The possibilities are endless!

My husband likes to have cheese and hot sauce on his chicken patties, but the girls and I stick to ketchup and pickle relish.
