So, burgers are one of those things we usually make during the summer so seeing as we’re heading into the colder months we will really miss our grill! Goodbye, BBQ Tenderloin and Grilled Corn – we’ll miss you! The hardest are the burgers, though. I love grilled burgers!

So, as much as I’m looking forward to baking more and making cozy dinners I’m always a little sad when we clean and cover the grill for the winter. So, you might be wondering – well, if grilling season is over for you what’s with the chicken burgers? I’m so glad you asked! I cooked these easy Chicken Burgers with Ranch using my – are you ready for it? – broiler. Yep, these juicy burgers cook in about 10 minutes in the oven, but you’d never know. They totally look and taste like they were grilled!

My sister-in-law told me about this recipe for chicken burgers. We usually stick with beef burgers or turkey burgers, so I was curious about using ground chicken to make a burger. I played around with the recipe she shared – I changed it a lot and mixed it up – and (spoiler alert!) they are yummy! Obviously, they have ranch dressing on them because you know how we love our ranch around here! Maybe I’ll throw some bacon bits in next time. You know how I roll.

Tender chicken burgers dripping with ranch – you know I’m in love! I think you will be, too, when you see how easy they are to make!

How to Make Ground Chicken Burger

• Preheat – while you prepare the burgers preheat the broiler. Grease the broiler pan.
• Make the patties – combine chicken, both types of breadcrumbs, seasonings, and BBQ sauce in a bowl.  Form the mixture into four burgers. (Picture 1 and 2)
• Cook – place the burgers on the broiler pan and cook them for 4 to 6 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F. (Picture 3)
• Toast – butter the buns and place them, cut side up, on the broiler pan and toast them until they turn golden brown. (Picture 4)
• Serve – place the burgers on the buns, top them with Ranch dressing, and serve! (Picture 6)

I love how the burgers get the same kind of marks – it looks like they were grilled! They are juicy and so delicious on the toasted buns. And all that drippy ranch…. well, you already know how I feel about that! Will I give up grilled burgers? Probably not, but these broiled burgers will keep me very happy as I wait for grilling season next year!
