Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chicken
• 0.25 cup buffalo sauce
• 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 pieces burger buns
• 0.25 cup blue cheese dressing
• 4 pieces lettuce leaves
• 4 pieces sliced tomatoes
• 0.25 cup extra buffalo sauce for topping (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, 1/4 cup buffalo sauce, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are evenly distributed, being careful not to overwork the mixture.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, place the chicken patties in the pan.

Step 4

Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from the heat and let rest for a few minutes.

Step 5

Toast the burger buns lightly, if desired, on the same skillet or in a toaster.

Step 6

Assemble the burgers: Place a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato on the bottom half of each bun. Add the cooked chicken patty on top.

Step 7

Drizzle a tablespoon of blue cheese dressing over each patty. If desired, add a splash of extra buffalo sauce for more heat.

Step 8

Top with the other half of each bun and serve immediately. Enjoy your Buffalo Chicken Burgers with your favorite side dishes!
