Ingredients
  

Buffalo Chicken Burgers
  • 1 lb. ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup hot sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Whipped Feta Spread
  • 6 oz / 170 g feta cheese (block or crumbles)
  • 4 oz / 115 g cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons water
Brushing
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter + 2 tablespoons hot sauce for brushing
Serving
  • Buns
  • Lettuce

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine the feta cheese, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, and water in a small food processor. Blend until the mixture becomes thick and spreadable with visible feta pieces.
  2. Mix the burger ingredients together in a medium bowl. Shape the mixture into 4-5 patties.
Cooking
  1. Heat a small amount of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side until browned and the centers reach 165°F (74°C).
  2. While the burgers finish cooking, brush the outside of the patties with the melted butter and hot sauce mixture.
Assembly
  1. Place the burgers on buns with lettuce and spread the whipped feta topping over the patties before serving.

Notes

Cook the chicken patties until fully cooked and use a light touch when forming them to help maintain a tender texture.
