To Make Prego Chicken Burgers:
Slice chicken breasts across the middle to make thinner cutlets then pour the prego sauce over the chicken fillets and coat evenly. No need to marinate – you can head to next step straight away..
In a medium frying pan over medium-high heat, add the coated chicken fillets and fry for 2-3 minutes per side or until cooked through. It is best to do this in 2-3 batches.
