Description

Juicy chicken burgers topped with creamy cheddar and zesty ranch, perfect for family dinners or cookouts.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Burger buns
  • Lettuce and tomato slices (optional for garnish)
  • Pickles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mix the ground chicken with shredded cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  2. Shape the mixture into patties, about 1-inch thick, making an indent in the center of each patty.
  3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  5. Toast the burger buns on the grill for a minute or two.
  6. Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun, topped with your preferred veggies and drizzle of ranch dressing.

Notes

For healthier alternatives, consider plant-based patties or gluten-free options.
