Korean UFO Chicken Burgers

We absolutely love these UFO burgers - and this Cripsy Korean chicken version might be my fav so far. If you don't have a machine, no prob, just make em normal. And if you want one, here's the one I use - it's not sponsored, but we love it and so far it's worked great.

Makes 4-6
