Servings 3

Ingredients
  

Burger

  • 350 g minced chicken
  • 3 tbsp panko crumbs
  • 2 tbsp chopped spring onions
  • 1 tbsp cajun spice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1-2 tbsp milk
  • 1/4 cup hot sauce I used Frank's
  • 1-2 tbsp veg oil

Ranch Dressing

  • 4 tbsp buttermilk
  • 1 tbsp mayo I used fat-free
  • 1 tbsp sour cream I used low-fat
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 garlic finely minced into paste or use a garlic press
  • 1/2 tsp dried dill or 1 tsp finely chopped chives mint, parsley

To Serve

  • 3 burger buns toasted
  • Slices of cucumber
  • Tomato slice
  • Butterhead lettuces
  • Celery sticks
  • 1 heaping tsp Ranch Dressing

Instructions
 

Burger

  • In a bowl, mix chicken, panko, cajun spice, and season with salt and pepper.
  • If mixture is too dry, add milk.
  • Divide meat mixture into 3 and shape into patties creating a dent in the middle.
  • This ensures that the patty cooks evenly and doesn't puff up in the middle.
  • Heat pan on med high and add oil.
  • Pan fry patties until nice and golden brown on each side (about 3 mins).
  • Then dip to evenly coat patties with hot sauce.

Ranch Dressing

  • Mix everything together in a small bowl and set aside until ready to use. I used it to dress the burger and as a dipping sauce for the celery sticks.

To serve

  • On toasted bun, built your burger, and top with prepared Ranch Dressing.
  • Serve with celery sticks, Baked Hand Cut Fries, and Ranch sauce.

Notes

An alternative to using buffalo hot sauce is melted butter with sriracha chilli sauce.
1/4 cup melted butter
1-2 tbsp sriracha chilli sauce
1 tbsp white vinegar
