Instructions

Prepare the Chicken Patties:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, ranch seasoning mix, shredded cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, egg, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Mix the ingredients together until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.

Cook the Burgers:

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add the chicken patties to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the patties are cooked through.

If the patties brown too quickly, reduce the heat slightly to ensure they cook evenly.

Assemble the Burgers:

Toast the hamburger buns, if desired.

Place the cooked chicken patties on the bottom half of each bun.

Add your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, red onion, and pickles.

Drizzle with ranch dressing or any other preferred sauce.

Place the top half of the bun on the burger.

Serve:

Serve the Cheddar Ranch Chicken Burgers immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries, chips, or a fresh salad.
