Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs ground chicken
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup plain bread crumbs
  • 1 oz ranch seasoning mix
  • 3 garlic cloves, smashed and minced
  • ½ cup finely diced onion
  • ½ cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
  • Buns
  • Bacon
  • Lettuce
  • Tomatoes
  • Ranch dressing
  • Additional veggies (optional)

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, egg, bread crumbs, ranch seasoning, minced garlic, diced onion, and shredded cheddar cheese; stir gently until just combined.
  2. Line a baking sheet or cutting board with parchment and press the mixture into evenly sized burger patties, shaping all before cooking.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil.
  4. Cook the patties for about 6-8 minutes per side, adjusting for thickness, until they’re thoroughly cooked through.
  5. To build the burgers, set the cooked patties on buns and layer with crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and a drizzle of ranch dressing; add any other veggies you prefer.
  6. Serve immediately for best taste and enjoy your delicious Cheddar Ranch Chicken Burgers!

Notes

  • Be careful not to overmix the patty ingredients to avoid dense burgers. To make shaping easier, wet your hands or chill the patties for 15-20 minutes before cooking. These can be cooked on stovetop, grilled, or baked based on your preference. Feel free to experiment with toppings like avocado slices or pickles for different flavors. Store leftovers carefully and reheat gently to maintain juiciness.
