Buffalo Chicken Burger is an amazing sandwich that hits so many taste buds. Juicy chicken burger cooked in buffalo wing sauce and made with ranch dressing, blue cheese crumbles, Mozzarella cheese, and veggies. Adjust the spice level by using mild, medium, or hot buffalo wing sauce.

Buffalo Chicken Burger

Ever since I tried Buffalo chicken for the first time, I’ve been in love. I always try to find new ways of using in and have quite a few recipes up my sleeve. When it comes to the sauce, personally, I prefer to use mild or medium because I’m a weakling and can’t handle anything hotter. And, I prefer to be able to taste my food while chewing it without being in complete physical pain.

But if you like it hot and like it spicy, go for the hot stuff and make it a blazing chicken sandwich.

Chicken burgers are wonderful because they are so easy to make and can be served any time of the day. Serve it for dinner with some veggies or as a sandwich for lunch. Buffalo style chicken burger is one of our favorites for an easy and finger-licking-delicous lunch.

When it comes to ranch, I prefer to make my own. Mainly because I still can’t find store-bough ranch that’s as good as my homemade ranch. If you’d like to try my homemade buttermilk ranch, you can find it HERE.

How To Serve

There are so many things that will go perfectly with this burger. If you’re trying to serve something to help cool down the spiciness of the burger, try a green salad, celery sticks, mashed potatoes, or cucumber slices. Don’t forget to serve some extra ranch dressing on the side.

If you don’t care for extinguishing your mouth, you can serve just about anything. Crispy fries will be great as a side dish, much like roasted veggies or a cup of soup.

Ingredients

Chicken Burger:

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 garlic cloves pressed
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup plain bread crumbs
  • Salt
  • Fresh cracked pepper
  • 1/2 tbsp minced fresh dill weed
  • 1 tbsp minced fresh parsley
  • 2 tbsp oil for cooking
  • 1/4 cup Buffalo sauce to coat chicken burgers

Sandwich:

  • 2 Burger buns
  • 1/4 cup Ranch Dressing
  • 3 tbsp Blue cheese crumbles
  • 4 Tomato slices
  • 1/4 cup Chopped green onion
  • 2 Slices of Mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Chicken Burgers:
  • Preheat the pan and the oil on medium heat. Combine the ingredients for the chicken burgers in a mixing bowl and mix well. Scoop out the meat mixture (as big as you want the burgers) and form patties with your hands. Cook the chicken burgers, on medium heat, for about 10 minutes of each side.
  • When the chicken burgers are fully cooked, pour some buffalo sauce in the pan and and cook the burgers in the sauce for about a minute on each side.
  • To assemble the sandwiches: spread some ranch dressing on the bottom bun, add some blue cheese crumbles and tomato slices. Add the buffalo chicken burger and top it off with some green onion and Mozzarella cheese slices.

    These are the best chicken burgers I ever had. I am a person that loves beef burgers. My wife made these for me about 2 years ago and I have to say there are times that I have a craving for these delicious burgers. I would highly recommend these to anyone that wants a change from regular beef burgers.

    Wondering–those who grilled them, how did you add the sauce at the end? Thanks

      Hi, Heidi! You could grill them and then toss them in a bowl with the sauce 🙂
