Chicken Burgers

My mom used to make these burgers for us. They're a great way to use up leftover chicken. You can pulse the ingredients in the food processor a couple times to speed thing along even more. Served with rice, or on a bun, I think you're going to like them.



2 cups shredded cooked chicken
15 crushed saltine crackers
1/3 cup mayonnaise
5 or 6 green onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

In a bowl, combine the chicken, cracker crumbs, mayonnaise, onions, lemon juice and pepper. Shape into six patties. Heat oil in a large skillet; fry patties over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and heated through. Yield: 6 servings.
