Buffalo Style Chicken Burgers with Easy Blue Cheese Ranch Dressing Recipe

Buffalo Style Chicken Burgers with Easy Blue Cheese Ranch Dressing Recipe, these thick juicy chicken burgers have the same flavors as the ever-popular chicken wings. They’re a great alternative to a beef burger yet lower in fat.

I joined a group of bloggers who participated in #burgermonth, which is this month, May. I made this Enchilada Burger. You should totally check it out.

When I made the Enchilada Burger, I also thought of this recipe.

This burger is out-of-this-world good. The flavors and textures contrast nicely. The hot buffalo sauce contrasts with the creamy blue cheese ranch dressing.

Buffalo Style Chicken Burgers with Easy Blue Cheese Ranch Dressing Recipe is a great alternative to a beef burger and lower in fat. They’re thick, spicy, juicy and taste just like Buffalo chicken wings.

Buffalo Style Chicken Burgers with Easy Blue Cheese Ranch Dressing Recipe

1. You can use ground turkey instead of ground chicken in this recipe. (You can also use straight-up chicken breast that’s not ground.)
2. Blue cheese is one of my favorite cheeses, but if you don’t have a taste for it use feta or queso fresco.
3. If you have a favorite from-scratch recipe for ranch dressing, use it. Otherwise, using a store-bought is fine.
4. Choose your favorite burger toppings. Some to try are lettuce, onion, tomato, avocado, bacon, cheddar, slaw, and a fried egg.
5. Also, try Sriracha Comeback Sauce instead of the Buffalo Wing Sauce.
6. Although I prefer to grill burgers, these are also tasty cooked stovetop on a grill pan.

Notes

To pan fry, heat skillet to medium high. Add oil to the pan, when oil is hot, add burgers. Cook 4 to 5 minutes per side, flip once and do not press. Add buffalo sauce then cheese to the burger. Place a pan top over the burger to hold the heat in so the cheese melts easily. Meanwhile, toast buns and prepare other toppings. Place burger on bun and load with your choice of toppings. Serve hot.©CallMePMc.com All images & content are copyright protected. Please do not use my images without prior permission.
