Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare Chicken
Shred 1/2 cup of cooked chicken. Rotisserie chicken can be used for this step.
Step 2: Combine Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, 1/2 cup grated zucchini, 1/3 cup grated carrots, 1 chopped red bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 1 egg, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Mix all ingredients together until well combined.
Step 3: Heat Skillet
In a large skillet, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat.
Step 4: Form and Cook Patties
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, scoop portions of the mixture onto the hot pan. This recipe makes 8 patties, so cook in batches of 4. Use the back of a spoon to flatten each scoop into a patty form.
Step 5: Flip and Finish Cooking
Cook the patties until they are golden brown on one side. Then, flip them over and cook for a few more minutes until the other side is also golden brown and the patties are cooked through.
Step 6: Serve
Remove the cooked chicken veggie patties from the skillet and serve immediately.
