Chicken is always such a great go-to protein for me! It’s easy to find, it’s filling, and high in protein. I love using ground chicken for the cheaper cost and how many different ways you can use it. I have always been a fan of chicken burgers, jazzing them up with different flavor combos like spinach avocado chicken burgers and sweet & sour chicken burgers. Now, these pickle ground chicken burgers are the latest chicken burger recipe I am loving!
Pickle chicken burgers are the perfect low-effort summer grill meal! They’re made with simple ingredients and come together in a flash.
Why you’ll love pickle ground chicken burgers

- A different flavor to try out! Burgers in the summer are such a classic, but I love how these have the pickle flavor for a twist on a classic chicken burger.
Recipe Ingredients
See the recipe card below for full information on ingredients and quantities.
- Ground Chicken. If you can’t find ground chicken at the butcher counter, you can also use a food processor to grind your own at home. Or, you can just use ground turkey!
- Dill Pickles and Pickle Juice.
- Fresh Dill.
- Coconut Flour. I find that I always need coconut flour as I use previously frozen chicken and it has a lot more moisture! If you use a chicken that’s more dry, you may not need as much coconut flour.
- Salt and Pepper, Dried Parsley, Garlic Powder, and Onion Powder.
- Gluten-Free Buns. I love Wildgrain (code UNBOUNDWELLNESS has discount for limited time).
- Green Leaf Lettuce and Red Onions. I love these for topping the burgers!
- Mayo and Whole Grain Mustard. These are my favorite spreads on these burgers, but you could switch it up if you prefer differently!

Michelle’s Tips & Tricks
- Adjust the coconut flour. I use previously frozen chicken and it has a lot more moisture, so I need the coconut flour! If you use a chicken that’s more dry, you may not need as much coconut flour.
- Adjust the toppings! I love this recipe in a bowl with toppings or on a delicious gluten-free bun with different toppings.
