Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1 large egg
• 0.25 cup almond flour
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cheddar cheese slices
• 8 large lettuce leaves
• 4 slices pickles
• 0.25 cup sugar-free mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon sugar-free ketchup
• 1 teaspoon dill pickle juice
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon mustard
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons avocado oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 2

Form the mixture into 8-medium sized, flat patties. They should be thin, about 1/4 inch thick, to mimic the original Big Mac patties.

Step 3

Heat avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Cook the chicken patties in batches for about 5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown. Ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 5

While the patties are cooking, prepare the sauce by mixing together the sugar-free mayonnaise, sugar-free ketchup, dill pickle juice, white vinegar, and mustard in a small bowl. Stir until smooth.

Step 6

Once all patties are cooked, place a slice of cheddar cheese on four of the patties while they're still hot to allow the cheese to melt.

Step 7

To assemble, start with one lettuce leaf on the plate, then place a cheese-topped patty on it. Add a dollop of the sauce, one pickle slice, another lettuce leaf, and a plain chicken patty. Top with more sauce, another pickle slice, and finish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

Step 8

Repeat the process for the remaining servings. Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Chicken Big Mac!
