Description
Juicy Cheddar Ranch Chicken Burger Stacks are golden-seared chicken patties packed with ranch flavor and melty cheddar in every bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ lbs ground chicken
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- ½ cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
- Extra cheddar slices (optional for topping)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, shredded cheddar, ranch seasoning, breadcrumbs, and egg.
- Mix gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep patties tender.
- Form into 6 even patties about ¾-inch thick.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook patties 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Add a slice of cheddar during the last minute and cover to melt.

Notes
- Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F for safety.
