Method

Use a meat mincer or processor to mince or blend the meat
Now beat the egg and mix well with the minced meat and leave it in the refrigerator for the meat to cool down
Once the meat is chilled, make them into oval patties that are about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick (try to keep them all equal in size).
Heat the grill pan or non stick pan in a medium heat. Grease then with olive oil.
Once the pan is hot Grill for 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until the chicken is fully cooked
