# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Chicken Mixture

01 - 1 pound ground chicken
02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - 1 small onion, finely chopped
04 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
06 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Alfredo Sauce

07 - 1 cup heavy cream
08 - 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

→ Assembly

09 - 4 hamburger buns

# How to Make It:

01 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent and fragrant.
02 - Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring regularly to prevent burning.
03 - Add ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes until fully cooked and no longer pink.
04 - Reduce heat to low. Pour in heavy cream and combine with the chicken mixture. Gradually add grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until melted and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
05 - Sprinkle in Italian seasoning. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir until evenly mixed. Adjust consistency with a splash of chicken broth or water if needed.
06 - Lightly toast hamburger buns in a skillet or toaster until just golden.
07 - Spoon a generous portion of chicken Alfredo mixture onto the bottom half of each bun. Top with remaining bun halves. Serve immediately while warm.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - For added nutrition, finely chopped bell peppers or spinach can be sautéed with the onions.
02 - For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a low-fat cream alternative.
03 - Store the chicken Alfredo mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep buns separate to maintain texture.
04 - Reheat chicken mixture gently in a skillet or microwave before serving.
