Buffalo Chicken Burgers


My husband and I enjoy buffalo wings. I wanted an easy way to enjoy the same flavor at home for a quick meal. These burgers were definately a hit and much healthier than the deep fried wings! They had great flavor and you can add as much or little of the buffalo sauce to each burger as you want. I served this with a side of celery sticks. Perfect!


Buffalo Chicken Burgers
1 pkg. ground all white chicken
1 cup shredded mozerella cheese
1/2 cup crumbled bleu cheese
1/4 cup chopped onion
Chopped fresh parsley
Salt/Pepper
1 small bottle hot sauce
3 Tbsp. butter
Prepared bleu cheese dressing
Buns

In a bowl combine the ground chicken, cheeses, onion, parsley, salt/pepper and 2 Tbsp. of hot sauce. Mix with hands until all combined. Shape into four patties. Preheat skillet with 1 Tbsp. oil. Fry patties until cooked through.
For the Buffalo Sauce:
In a small bowl pour the remaining hot sauce. Add the 3 Tbsp. butter. Microwave and stir periodically until melted and warm. Set aside.
To assemble to burgers, baste patties with buffalo sauce (as much as you like), put on bun. Top with bleu cheese dressing. You can also add tomatoes & lettuce. Enjoy!
