Ranch Cheddar Chicken Burgers are a flavorful and juicy twist on the classic burger. Combining the savory taste of ranch seasoning with the richness of cheddar cheese, these chicken burgers are perfect for a delicious and satisfying meal. Let’s get started on making these mouthwatering burgers!

Ingredients

Chicken Burger Patties:

  • 2 lbs ground chicken
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
  • 1 oz ranch seasoning mix
  • 3 garlic cloves, smashed and minced
  • 1/2 cup finely diced onion
  • 1/2 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Burger Mixture:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, plain bread crumbs, ranch seasoning mix, minced garlic, finely diced onion, and finely shredded cheddar cheese.
    • Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Take care to avoid overmixing, as it can result in tough patties.
  2. Form the Patties:
    • Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 3/4-inch thick. This recipe should make about 6-8 patties, depending on your preferred size.
  3. Cook the Patties:
    • Preheat a grill or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or skillet to prevent sticking.
    • Cook the chicken patties for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and are fully cooked through. The patties should be golden brown on the outside and juicy on the inside.
  4. Serve the Burgers:
    • Toast your favorite burger buns on the grill or in the skillet for a minute or two until they are lightly browned.
    • Place each cooked chicken patty on a toasted bun. Add your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, and additional cheddar cheese.
    • Spread a dollop of ranch dressing or mayo on the top bun if desired, then assemble the burgers.
  5. Enjoy:
    • Serve the Ranch Cheddar Chicken Burgers hot with your favorite sides, such as fries, coleslaw, or a fresh salad.
