Ingredients
  

1 lb ground chicken

1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/4 cup ranch dressing

1/4 cup breadcrumbs

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp salt

1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

4 hamburger buns

Lettuce, tomato, and additional ranch dressing for serving

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and fresh parsley (if using).

    Mix the ingredients together until well combined, taking care not to overwork the chicken.

      Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 3/4-inch thick.

        Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, add a little oil to prevent sticking.

          Cook the patties for about 6-7 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and are golden brown on the outside.

            While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.

              Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun and adding lettuce, tomato, and a drizzle of ranch dressing.

                Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious cheddar ranch chicken burgers!
