Instructions
- Combine the ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, bring together the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, feta, parsley, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir well until everything harmonizes into a cohesive mixture.

Notes
You can form the patties a day in advance. For a healthier twist, these patties adapt well to an air fryer or can be oven-baked.
