Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion, and cook 3-4 minutes, or until slightly translucent and crisp-tender. Add the garlic, and cook 1-2 more minutes, or until garlic is fragrant and lightly browned. Stir in the spinach, and cook, stirring often, until just wilted.

- Divide the mixture into 4 - 6 ounce patties. Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick skillet. Add the patties to the pan, and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the patties reach 165°F.
- If needed, work in batches, until all patties are cooked through. Serve on your favorite gluten free bun!
Notes
- IF YOU CANNOT FIND GLUTEN FREE BREAD CRUMBS:
Gluten free bread crumbs are pretty widely available in most grocery stores, but if you cannot find them in yours, simply toast 2-3 pieces of your favorite gluten free bread, tear into pieces, and place in the food processor. Pulse until crumbly. - How to store: Store chicken patties in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- How to freeze: Freeze chicken patties and transfer to a freezer bag to keep for up to 3-4 months.
- How to reheat: You can reheat these in the microwave or in a skillet over medium heat until warmed throughout.
