• 1 tsp red chili powder (Listed for the breading mixture.)
• 1 tsp garlic powder (For the breading mixture)
• 1 tsp paprika (The method says to add paprika to the breading, although the ingredient list specifies red chili powder.)
• 0.5 cup mayonnaise (For the sauce)
• salt (To taste, for the sauce)
• black pepper (The sauce method mentions pepper without specifying a quantity.)

Steps

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and egg. Mix until everything is well combined.

2. 2

   Shape the chicken mixture into six equal-size round patties.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, crush the cornflakes until they are just larger than breadcrumbs. Add the red chili powder, garlic powder, and the paprika specified in the method, then mix well.

4. 4

   Coat each chicken patty thoroughly with the cornflake mixture.

5. 5

   Refrigerate the coated patties for at least 30 minutes.

6. 6

   Pour 3/4 inch of oil into a large skillet and heat it over medium-high heat.

7. 7

   When the oil is hot, carefully add the chicken patties to the skillet. Fry for about 2–3 minutes per side, until cooked through.

8. 8

   Transfer the fried patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

9. 9

   In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, white pepper, sweet relish, and ketchup. Mix well to make the burger sauce.

10. 10

    Assemble the sandwiches with the hamburger buns, fried chicken patties, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mild cheddar cheese slices, and burger sauce.

Notes

The source lists red chili powder for the breading but the method says paprika; both are preserved. The source does not specify exact amounts of vegetables, cheese, or frying oil, and it does not state a final internal temperature. Ensure the chicken patties are fully cooked through.
