Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons dry ranch seasoning mix
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
- 4 burger buns
- Toppings: Lettuce, tomato, red onion, and extra ranch dressing
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients and placing the ground chicken in a large mixing bowl. If your chicken is very cold, it will be easier to handle. Slice your green onions finely and set them aside.
- Add the Greek yogurt, ranch seasoning, panko breadcrumbs, green onions, garlic powder, and black pepper to the bowl with the chicken. Use your hands or a spatula to gently mix everything together until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the meat, as this can make the burgers tough.
- Divide the mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about 3/4-inch thick. If the mixture feels a bit sticky, you can lightly dampen your hands with water to make the shaping process easier.
- Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the patties. Cook for about 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). The outside should be golden brown and slightly crispy.
- While the burgers rest for a minute, lightly toast your burger buns in the same pan. Place a chicken patty on each bun and load them up with your favorite toppings like crisp lettuce, juicy tomato slices, and an extra drizzle of ranch dressing.
