  These are really good. I have made them several times and I find that mixing all ingredients before cooking the chicken works better for me. My husband and I make them every few weeks for a lunch or a light dinner on the weekends. Very flavorful and easy to put together. - 2/3/09

  I call these chicken llapingachos. Llapingachos are potato patties I'd eat in Ecuador and these taste so similar. I do not add teh BBQ sauce. I weighed the granules and breast and it came out to be 1 1/3 c granules and 1 lg. breast for me. - 4/9/10

  This was delicious. I loved it. Will definitely make this again. BTW, the patties tend to get firmer as they cool down. I had some leftover and the leftover patties were much firmer than the patties that were eaten while hot/warm. - 12/25/09

  Really tasty! Can't believe mashed potatos work in a patty form. Even the picky boyfriend had seconds! - 9/21/09

  I have made these 2 times in 2 weeks. First I used a baked potatoe and shredded it. Then I used the instant mashed potatoes. I used A-1 sauce instead of bbq sauce. I make ahead and we can just heat them for a great burger!! Flavor is great!! - 9/11/09

  I leave out the herbs and just season with the onions, BBQ sauce & taco seasoning. My family loves them on wheat dinner rolls. - 8/31/09

  Thank you for the recipe, I enjoyed it. After reading the comments, I added 1/4 cup grated summer squash for wetness, it worked well. - 8/17/09

  I thought these were very yummy! My husband even liked them. They tasted a lot like crab cakes. They were kinda hard to keep together, but not that bad. I think next time I MAY try the canned/packaged chicken - saves time on shredding. - 8/14/09

  It was okay. My family didn't like it, but I did. Next time I would use a bit more spice. - 8/9/09

  These were good, but I tweeked the recipe and made it spicier, adding chipotle seasoning and 1/2 c. cheddar. The family really liked them, but I hated trying to coat them in bread crumbs. If I can figure out an easier way to do that I would make them again. - 8/5/09

  I made my own taco seasoning and used crushed shredded wheat in place of the bread crumbs. Simply fabulous. Next time I will make a daal and curried veggies as side dishes. Thank you for sharing. - 7/17/09

  Tasty overall, but a lot of work to put together. Shredding the chicken took a long time. In the end, the patties didn't stick together and it ended up being more of a chicken/potato spread. - 6/24/09

  after reading comments, this is what I changed (and it was AWESOME!):
  used uncooked cx, mixed all in the food processor, used crushed wheat crackers to coat, BAKED on a pizza sheet with a pan under to catch the drippings.
  Turned out great w/a little dark meat in for some fat so it's not so dry!! - 6/4/09

  I think this would be a bit better if the potatoes were made with a little bit less liquid--overall a tasty way to use up those leftovers! - 6/1/09

  My husband & I LOVE sweet potatoes... Next time I make this I will use that instead of the instant potatoes,,, This will also make it a much healthier recipe... - 3/19/09

  Add Egg White ,onion and cilantro mix bread crumbs in, then coat with extra crumbs that have been seasoned. Now it is spicy. - 2/23/09

  Incredible!
  
  These things were absolutely fantastic!! After reading some reviews I decided to make my potatoes pretty thick hoping they would hold their shape well and they did. I prepared the patties earlier in the day, chilled until time for dinner and served hot off the grill. Will definitely make again! - 2/4/09

  This was very good! Next time I think I will add some green chiles and a little hot sauce in place of bbq though. - 1/29/09

  I made these for dinner and everyone liked them, even my 8 yr old. It made about 5 burgers instead of 8. That is if you patty them the size of a hamburger bun. They were a little mushy but you have to remember it has mashed potatoes in them. - 1/6/09

  These patties had a great taste. My DH loved the flavor. Next time I will probably cut the mashed potatoes down a little to make them firmer. I used the garlic flavor mashed potatoes. Yummy! - 1/4/09

  the potatoes were confusing to make as directed -- variable by brand . I made using nofat dry milk and water only. I skipped the cooking/cooling == not necessary. I cooked on griddle using pam not sunflower oil, used chili powder and italian seasoning
  for spices. Used electric handi chopper - 12/12/08
  
  
• BOXER39
  
  
  Bad
  
  I did not like making this recipe at all...the first thing that through me off was the fake mashed potatoes...it is very messy to make and they do not stick together and are very bland even after adding double the spices...did not like this recipe at all. - 11/24/08

  I loved them. They weren't that hard to keep together, but I used crunched up whole grain crackers. - 11/5/08

  O.K.
  
  I thought the taste was great but I had a hard time getting the burgers to stay together. They were really mushy. - 10/22/08
  
  
• RELEVART
  
  
  Bad
  
  This was horrible. There was nothing "spicy" about it, although I guessed that as I started making it and realized there weren't any spicy ingredients. Beyond the fact that they didn't stay together, it just tasted like a mashed potato sandwich. This would need some serious editing to be worthwhile! - 10/14/08

  These turned out so good ! If you Grind the Chicken and the onion in the food processor they stick together really well ! - 9/27/08
  
  
• FREE2LIVE777
  
  
  O.K.
  
  I agree - they were hard to keep together!!! In the end, I didn't end up with patties. They were OK but too much work went into it without much of a pay off. They weren't that good in the end and I didn't go over or under what was required. This is coming from a "good cook"- so I am told. - 9/13/08

  Excellent recipe and a great idea for leftover chicken! I mixed the breadcrumbs into the chicken mixture instead of just dipping, and I think this helped hold the burgers together better. - 7/15/08
  
  
• LILWITCH13
  
  
  O.K.
  
  It seems if you put an egg in the mixture it would stay together because it kept falling apart, but they did taste good. - 7/11/08

  Just like everyone else, I had a really hard time keeping the patties in one piece. Other than that, they were delicious! - 6/22/08

  I have to agree that these were hard to keep together in the pan. I used my hands to mix the mashed potatoes in. Pretty good -- I will try different mixed spices next time, used Italian Seasoning this time. - 5/31/08

  These are really tasty! But they are hard to make - more like crab cakes than burgers. They easily fall apart until you finally get one side cooked crispy enough to turn them over. Except for that, I really liked these and have frozen some to take with me this weekend camping. I will make again! - 5/28/08

  These were very tasty and I would definitely make them again. However, they are incredibly unstable and fall apart very easily, so you have to be prepared to be very gentle with them when transferring them to and from the pan. - 5/19/08

  I added some salt. My -picky- daughter loved it.
  It was a good idea to mix the breadcrumbs into the mixture!. I also processed the chicken with the ingredients, except for the mashed potatoes. - 3/5/08

  This is a recipe that must taste better than the recipe sounds. Since the chicken is cooked, I wonder if it would be a good recipe for leftover turkey. Obviously you would have to stick to the white meat to keep the calories down. I would like to hear from more people who have tried this. - 3/4/08
