Ingredients
1 and 1/2 pounds lean, ground chicken
3 large green onions, white and light green part only, roughly chopped
1 fat clove garlic, minced or pressed
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Prepared Ranch dressing
Salt
Bottled Buffalo sauce (whichever brand you prefer)
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
Directions
- 1) Mix the ground chicken with green onions and garlic. Cover with foil and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but up to 24 hours.
- 2) When you are ready to eat: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Wet your hands with cool water and gather 1/8 of the chicken mixture. Shape it into a sort of nest and place one heaping tablespoon of blue cheese into the center, then cover with 1/8 more chicken and shape into a patty. Repeat with the remaining chicken. You will have 4 burgers. They can be placed back into the fridge for up to a day (in which case, turn the oven off), or cook immediately. Drizzle a scant amount of veg oil over both sides of the burgers and a light sprinkle of salt then line a baking tray with foil and bake for 15 minutes, douse both sides with Buffalo sauce and flip the burgers. Continue to bake for 15 more minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the burgers to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Serve on soft hamburger buns with shredded lettuce and Ranch dressing. Makes 4 burgers
