Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium zucchini (or one green zucchini and one yellow squash) (grated)
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • ¼ cup green onions or chives (finely sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic (pressed)
  • 2 teaspoons salt (divided)
  • ¼ teaspoons black pepper
  • Olive oil to sauté

Instructions
 

  • Place zucchini in a bowl. Sprinkle grated zucchini with 1 teaspoon salt and let stand for about 10 minutes, then squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Discard drained liquid.
  • Combine all ingredients (except oil) with remaining salt and stir until just combined.
  • Scoop about 1/4 cup of the patty mixture, forming into small patties and place on a plate.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
