Ingredients
– 1 lb ground chicken

Instructions
1. 1. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, Caesar dressing, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
2. 2. Divide the chicken mixture into 4 equal portions and form them into patties, about 4 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick.
3. 3. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

Notes
– For a creamier Caesar flavor, add an extra 1-2 tbsp of Caesar dressing to the patty mixture.
– Experiment with different toppings like sliced tomato, avocado, or onion.
– These burgers can also be baked in the oven at 400°F for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
