Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 2 Jalapeno peppers chopped
- 1 small onion chopped
- 3 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 pound ground chicken
- ¼ cup panko or more as needed
- ¼ cup buffalo sauce – add more if you want more of the Buffalo sauce flavor
- 3-4 ounces crumbled blue cheese – add more if you want yours cheesier
- salt and pepper to taste
- melted butter for serving if desired
- 4 Buns for serving
Instructions
- First, heat a pan to medium heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add jalapeno peppers and onion and cook about 5 minutes to soften.
- Next, add garlic and cook about a minute, stirring.
- Add the mixture to a mixing bowl and cool.
- Add ground chicken, panko, Buffalo sauce and most of the crumbled blue cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Hand mix. Do not overmix or the burgers will become mealy.
- Next, form the mixture into 4 burger patties.
- Heat the pan again to medium and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook the burgers about 5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. They should register 165 degrees F internally when measured with a meat thermometer.
- Last, lightly brush with butter then serve on buns with extra blue cheese crumbles and Buffalo sauce. We added in some crisp lettuce and tomato slices. Yum!

Notes
- Some brands of ground chicken can be pretty wet. You can drain them before using, or use more panko if needed to hold them together.
