• 0.75 tsp Paprika (For the chicken patties)
• 0.25 tsp White pepper (For the chicken patties)
• Salt (To taste, for the chicken patties)
• 75 g All-purpose flour (For coating)
• 75 g All-purpose flour (For the batter)
• 120 ml Cold water (For the batter)
• Salt (A pinch, for the batter)
• Vegetable oil (For frying)

Steps

1. 1

   Put the ground chicken in a bowl. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, white pepper, and salt, then mix until evenly combined.

2. 2

   Divide the mixture into 3 equal portions. Shape each portion into a thin patty slightly larger than a burger bun.

3. 3

   Spread the 75 g flour designated for coating in a shallow dish. Coat each patty in the flour.

4. 4

   In a bowl, whisk the remaining 75 g flour with the cold water and a pinch of salt until the batter is smooth.

5. 5

   Dip each floured patty into the batter, allowing the excess to drip off.

6. 6

   Fry the battered patties in vegetable oil until golden, crispy, and cooked through. Transfer them to a wire rack.

7. 7

   Mix the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, pickle juice, garlic powder, and black pepper until the sauce is smooth.

8. 8

   Lightly toast the burger buns.

9. 9

   Spread the sauce on both halves of each bun. Add a crispy chicken patty and finish with plenty of shredded iceberg lettuce.

Notes

The source does not specify frying temperature, oil quantity, or a cooking time; fry until the patties are cooked through. It also does not give a measured amount for lettuce.
