Open-Face Chicken Parmesan Burgers image

We love chicken Parmesan and thought, "Why not make it a burger?" I like to use fresh mozzarella on these. I've also made the patties with ground turkey. -Charlotte Gehle, Brownstown, Michigan

These burgers were easy to make, but they didn't have a lot of flavor. I think I would have preferred to use a different recipe.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the Parmesan cheese helped to add some flavor.

These burgers were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred to bake them instead of frying them.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken parmesan, but these burgers were surprisingly good. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the Parmesan cheese added a nice salty touch.

These burgers are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover roasted chicken, and it worked perfectly in this recipe.

These burgers were easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought marinara sauce, and it worked perfectly.

These burgers were a hit with my family! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the Parmesan cheese added a nice crispy touch. I will definitely be making these again.
