Notes
Substitutions: If you don’t have ground chicken, feel free to use turkey or even a mix of both! Just keep it Halal. Timing: Don’t rush the cooking of the chicken patties. Allow them to brown nicely, and ensure they cook thoroughly for the best texture. Avoiding Common Mistakes: Taking the time to prepare and season your ingredients before cooking will enhance the overall flavor. Also, check the doneness of the chicken with a meat thermometer to avoid undercooking or overcooking. If you have leftovers, store the sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cooked patties individually wrapped for up to 2 months.
