It’s been awhile since I’ve shared a buffalo chicken recipe with you.

(Okay, writing that sentence made me curious and I went to see how long it had actually been – less than a month ago I shared this buffalo chicken salad. Hahahaha!)

One of the things I LOVE about these burgers is that they turn out super juicy, they are easy to make more or less spicy, and they’re topped off with ranch coleslaw!

The ranch slaw balances out the spice perfectly and adds this cool, crisp topping to the burger. So good!

How to Make:

Add ground chicken, panko bread crumbs, wing sauce, ranch seasoning mix, prepared ranch dressing, and an egg to a mixing bowl and stir well to combine the mixture.

Form into 4 patties and grill for 7 minutes per side, or until a thermometer reaches 165 degree. Top each patty with cheddar cheese about 2 minutes before they’re done.

Place the buffalo chicken burgers on a hamburger bun, top it off with some ranch coleslaw (just coleslaw mix, ranch dressing, and ranch seasoning!), and then give it an extra drizzle of wing sauce.

Instructions

• In a large bowl, combine the chicken, panko, hot sauce, ranch powder, ranch dressing, and egg. Stir to combine thoroughly. Use your hands to form mixture into four patties.
• Cook chicken patties on a preheated grill or skillet, six minutes per side or until chicken reaches 165 degrees. Top with sliced cheddar one to two minutes before removing from the grill.
• To prepare the ranch slaw, mix together the coleslaw mix, ranch dressing, and ranch powder in a small bowl to combine.
• Place the chicken patties on the sandwich buns, top with the ranch slaw, and drizzle with extra hot sauce, if desired.

Tips & Notes:

If you’ll be grilling the chicken burgers, I recommend adding another 1/3 cup of panko to the mixture to help the patties hold together so they won’t fall through the grill grates. If you’re cooking these on a skillet, they should hold up as written just fine.
