Steps

1. In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green chili, chopped cilantro, garam masala, cumin powder, coriander powder, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and breadcrumbs. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
2. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have a nice golden brown color.
4. While the patties are cooking, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing yogurt, chopped mint leaves, and chaat masala in a small bowl. Set aside.
