Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by shredding the carrots using a food processor or a box grater, ensuring finely shredded pieces for easy mixing.
  2. In your food processor, combine the shredded carrots and ground chicken. Pulse for about 30 seconds until you have a smooth mixture.
  3. Add the egg, green onions, flax seeds, chia seeds, oat flour, salt, and onion powder. Blend for another 30 to 45 seconds until fully combined.
  4. With wet hands, grab portions of the mixture and roll them into small balls before flattening into patties.
  5. Heat a skillet over low to medium heat, add olive oil, and place the patties in the skillet. Cook each side for about 5 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Allow the patties to cool slightly before serving. Serve plain or paired with a side of avocado or yogurt for dipping.
