Preparation:
1. Preheat your skillet over medium heat, coating it lightly with non-stick spray or a touch of olive oil.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, and shredded cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Mix the ingredients well and shape the mixture into patties, aiming for about 4 generous portions.
4. Place the patties carefully in the skillet, cooking each side for approximately 5 to 6 minutes until they are golden-brown and reach an internal temperature of 165°F to ensure they are fully cooked.

Variations & Tips:
- Enhance the flavor by adding minced garlic or onion powder. For a spicy kick, incorporate red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper. Fresh herbs like parsley or basil can add a bright, aromatic touch.
- For meal prep enthusiasts, consider doubling the recipe and freezing extra patties. Place cooked patties in a single layer in a freezer bag for an easy, homemade meal ready whenever you are.
