When my grandson was younger, we always joked that nothing could make ranch chicken taste better. Then one day Avery's eyes lit up and he suggested we fry it! Our fried chicken burger was born. You won't believe how good these little sliders are. -Tamara Hire, Decatur, Illinois

RANCH CHICKEN-BURGER SLIDERS



Ranch Chicken-Burger Sliders image

In an effort to eat healthier, I have been substituting chicken, turkey and soy products for ground beef a lot lately. Some go over well, other recipes find their grave. This one however, is a "keeper and repeater" as my fiance has started calling my "mad experiments."

Categories     Burgers

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 23

FOR THE BURGERS
2 lb ground chicken breast
1 pkg dry ranch dressing
1/2 c grated carrot (about 1 large carrot)
4 green onions, minced
1 clove garlic, minced fine or pressed through a garlic press
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/2-1 red bell pepper, diced very fine
1 egg
1/2 c plain breadcrumbs
1 pkg hawaiian bread rolls or other small rolls
BURGER TOPPINGS (ANY COMBINATION OF THESE, SOME OR ALL)
sliced tomato
sliced red or vidalia onion
fire-roasted peppers
sliced cucumber
lettuce
raw baby spinach leaves, washed
lightly sauteed mushroms
1/2 slice of cheese
low-fat ranch dressing
avocado slices or guacamole
low-fat sour cream

Steps:

  • 1. If previously frozen, make sure ground chicken has been thawed completely. Prepare burger ingredients and set aside.
  • 2. In a large mixing bowl using clean or gloved hands, work with the ground chicken so it isn't in a chunk. Add the package of ranch dressing and parsley and work it in thoroughly. Add the carrot, onion, garlic and bell pepper and mix with your hands until it is well incorporated in the chicken, kind of like making meatloaf. Add 1 egg and incorporate. Add breadcrumbs and make sure everything gets completely "mashed" together. Shape into small patties that are slightly larger than the buns you have (will shrink).
  • 3. On an outdoor grill over medium heat (lightly greased or covered with tin foil) cook approx 4-6 minute on each side or until done. In a skillet or cast iron grill pan lightly greased with olive oil cook over medium heat 5-7 minutes a side, until done.
  • 4. Cut your rolls in half and set inside-down in a separate skillet (non greased) to gently heat.
  • 5. Set each roll with a burger and top with your favorite burger veggies and condiments, what I listed above are just suggestions of what we like.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality ranch dressing. The flavor of the ranch dressing will be the star of the show, so make sure you use a brand that you enjoy.
  • Shred the chicken ahead of time. This will save you time when you're assembling the sliders.
  • Use a variety of toppings. The possibilities are endless, so get creative and use whatever you like. Some popular options include bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
  • Make the sliders ahead of time. These sliders can be made up to 2 hours ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the sliders warm. Reheat the sliders in the oven or microwave before serving.

Conclusion:

These ranch chicken sliders are the perfect party food. They're easy to make, delicious, and always a hit with guests. So next time you're looking for a crowd-pleasing appetizer or snack, give these sliders a try.
