How to Make Chicken Pineapple Patties

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground chicken, 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 large egg. Gently mix until just combined.
  3. Shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties (about 3/4 inch thick).
  4. Arrange 4 slices of fresh pineapple (about 1/2 inch thick) in a greased baking dish. Top each pineapple slice with a chicken patty.
  5. In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of pineapple juice. Stir until sugar is dissolved and sauce is smooth.
  6. Pour the butter-sugar-pineapple juice mixture evenly over the chicken patties.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and patties are golden brown. Baste with the pan juices halfway through.
  8. While the patties bake, prepare your rice: Cook 1 cup of rice according to package directions. Toss cooked rice with 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley before serving.
  9. Serve the chicken pineapple patties immediately on a bed of parsley rice. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
