Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Baked Chicken Burgers with Bacon and Onion.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C), setting the stage for deliciousness.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, dry bread crumbs, and French onion soup mix, stirring until everything is well blended.
Step 3
Next, take your chopped bacon and toss it into a food processor.
Step 4
Pulse it about 10 to 12 times until itâs finely chopped, making sure to scrape down the sides as needed to get every bit incorporated.
Step 5
Now, add that savory bacon to your chicken mixture and mix it all together until itâs evenly combined.
Step 6

Step 13
Donât forget to season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
