Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Burger Patties:

  • 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

For Assembling the Burgers:

  • Buns
  • Bacon
  • Lettuce
  • Tomatoes
  • Ranch dressing
  • Additional veggies (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken Burger Patties: In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, egg, plain bread crumbs, ranch seasoning mix, smashed and minced garlic, finely diced onion, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated for a uniform mixture.
  2. Shape the Patties: Cover a baking sheet or large cutting board with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Shape the chicken mixture into evenly sized burger patties, shaping all patties before cooking to ensure even cooking times.
  3. Preheat the Pan: Heat a large cooking pan over medium heat and add a little oil to prevent sticking and aid in browning.
  4. Cook the Chicken Burgers: Place the patties in the pan and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side, adjusting time depending on patty size, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and they are fully cooked through with a golden exterior.
  5. Prepare the Burger Assembly: While patties cook, prepare the buns by toasting if desired and cook bacon until crispy. Wash and slice lettuce and tomatoes, and gather ranch dressing and any additional veggies you wish to add.
  6. Assemble the Burgers: Place each cooked chicken patty on a bun, then layer with crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, tomato slices, and drizzle with ranch dressing. Add any extra veggies according to your preference.
  7. Serve: Serve immediately while the burgers are warm and enjoy your delicious Cheddar Ranch Chicken Burgers!

Notes

  • Ensure chicken patties are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for food safety.
  • For crispier bacon, cook on medium heat until golden brown before assembling.
  • Toasting buns can add extra texture and prevent sogginess from the ranch dressing.
  • Feel free to customize additional veggies like pickles, onions, or avocado to suit your taste.
  • Use gluten-free bread crumbs and buns for a gluten-free variation.
