Buffalo Chicken Burgers
These Buffalo Chicken Burgers are a spicy burger topped with hot sauce and creamy blue cheese coleslaw!
Ingredients
- 1 lb raw 98% lean ground chicken breast
- ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 scallion sliced (green parts only)
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon dried dill weed
- 3 ⅓ tablespoons Buffalo Wing sauce divided
- 1 cup undressed coleslaw mix (found bagged in the produce section)
- 3 tablespoons light blue cheese dressing
- 4 hamburger buns (I used Martin’s Sandwich Potato Rolls)
- 4 lettuce leaves
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, panko breadcrumbs, egg, scallions, parsley, salt, pepper, garlic powder, dill, and two tablespoons of the wing sauce. Stir together with a fork until mixed. Form into four equal patties and place on a platter or cutting mat. Optional/Recommended: Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour to let the flavors meld and patties firm up.
- When the burgers are ready to cook, lightly mist a nonstick grill pan or skillet with cooking spray and bring over medium heat. Place the burger patties on the pan (you may need to work in batches depending on the size of your pan) and cook for 5 minutes. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the burgers are cooked through.
- While the burgers are cooking, place the dry coleslaw mix and the blue cheese dressing in a mixing bowl and stir together until coated.
- To build each burger, place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of a burger bun. Add the cooked burger patty and drizzle a teaspoon of Buffalo wing sauce over the patty. Add ¼ cup of the blue cheese coleslaw followed by the top of the burger bun.
