Greek Chicken Patties

This was our first tiny harvest from this year's garden, mint leaves to go in our Greek inspired dinner:






Greek Chicken Patties

1 lb. ground chicken

1/2 cup panko bread crumbs

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1/4 cup chopped mint leaves

1 egg

2 cloves of finely chopped garlic

1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Stir well. Place 2 Tablespoons of oil in a frying pan and make sure the bottom of the pan in well coated, so the patties won't stick. Form 8 patties and fry until golden brown on each side. Serve on pita bread with lettuce, tomato, and tzatziki sauce (recipe below).
