These burgers were easy to make and turned out great. The slaw was a bit too tangy for my taste, but overall I really enjoyed this recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken burgers, but these were actually really good. The slaw was the perfect complement to the burger.

These burgers were amazing! The chicken was so juicy and flavorful, and the slaw was the perfect topping. I will definitely be making these again and again.

I made these burgers with ground turkey instead of chicken and they were still really good. The slaw was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall I really enjoyed this recipe.
