Ingredients
Chicken Sliders
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies (filling removed)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 hamburger buns
- Lettuce, tomato slices, and pickles (for serving)
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, crushed Oreo cookies (with the filling removed), cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, panko breadcrumbs, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated to form the burger mixture.
- Form Patties: Divide the mixture evenly into four portions. Shape each portion into a round patty, roughly the size of your hamburger buns, ensuring they hold together firmly.
- Cook Patties: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken patties for approximately 5-6 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and are golden brown on the outside.
- Toast Buns: While the patties cook, toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a skillet for 1-2 minutes until they are lightly browned and warmed through.
- Assemble Sliders: Place each cooked chicken patty on a toasted bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, and pickles as desired. Serve immediately while hot, optionally paired with fries or a fresh salad.
Notes
- Crush the Oreos finely to ensure they blend smoothly into the patties without affecting texture adversely.
- Customize your sliders by adding favorite toppings or substituting ground chicken with turkey or beef if preferred.
- Store leftover cooked patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat using a skillet or microwave before serving.
