Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 and 1/2 pounds lean, ground chicken
3 large green onions, white and light green part only, roughly chopped
1 fat clove garlic, minced or pressed
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Prepared Ranch dressing
Salt
Bottled Buffalo sauce (whichever brand you prefer)
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

Steps:

  • 1) Mix the ground chicken with green onions and garlic. Cover with foil and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but up to 24 hours.
  • 2) When you are ready to eat: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Wet your hands with cool water and gather 1/8 of the chicken mixture. Shape it into a sort of nest and place one heaping tablespoon of blue cheese into the center, then cover with 1/8 more chicken and shape into a patty. Repeat with the remaining chicken. You will have 4 burgers. They can be placed back into the fridge for up to a day (in which case, turn the oven off), or cook immediately. Drizzle a scant amount of veg oil over both sides of the burgers and a light sprinkle of salt then line a baking tray with foil and bake for 15 minutes, douse both sides with Buffalo sauce and flip the burgers. Continue to bake for 15 more minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the burgers to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
  • Serve on soft hamburger buns with shredded lettuce and Ranch dressing. Makes 4 burgers

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup sliced carrots
1 pound ground white-meat chicken
2 egg whites, lightly beaten
1 celery stalk, roughly chopped
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup blue cheese, plus more for garnish (optional)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 cup hot sauce (such as Tabasco Buffalo Style)
Vegetable oil cooking spray
4 large kaiser rolls, split
Iceberg lettuce (optional)
Carrot and celery sticks (optional)
Light blue cheese dressing (optional)

Steps:

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine carrot slices with 2 tablespoons water; microwave on high, stirring every minute, until very tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and let cool; mash carrots. Add chicken, egg whites, celery, breadcrumbs and cheese; mix to combine. Form chicken mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. In a second bowl, stir cornstarch into hot sauce until dissolved; set aside. Coat a grill rack or grill pan with cooking spray. Grill patties over medium-high heat for 6 minutes; flip and grill 4 minutes more. Brush patties with hot sauce mixture; grill until internal temperature reaches 165°F, about 2 minutes. Place 1 burger on bottom of each roll. Garnish with cheese and lettuce, if desired. Top with other half of roll. Serve with carrot and celery sticks and blue cheese dressing for dipping, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for the best results.
  • Use a food processor or blender: This will help you achieve a smooth and consistent texture for your buffalo chicken mixture.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through to prevent it from becoming dry and tough.
  • Use your favorite buffalo sauce: There are many different buffalo sauces available, so choose one that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Get creative with your toppings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to topping your buffalo chicken burgers. Some popular options include blue cheese dressing, ranch dressing, shredded lettuce, tomato, and onion.
