Ingredients

For the chicken burgers:

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
  • 3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
  • 3 tablespoons Buffalo sauce
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ cup plain panko bread crumbs
  • vegetable oil for greasing the grill

For the celery topping:

  • ½ cup shaved celery
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • a pinch of sugar
  • a pinch of salt

For serving:

  • 4 toasted buns
  • Buffalo sauce
  • crumbled blue cheese
  • lettuce

Instructions

To prepare the chicken burgers:

  • Gently mix all ingredients together and form into 4 burgers. Place the burgers on a parchment or wax paper lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or cover with plastic wrap for longer storage.)
  • While the chicken burgers are resting, mix together all the celery topping ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove the burgers from the refrigerator while preheating the grill. Pour a few tablespoons of vegetable oil into a small bowl. Fold a paper towel into a small square. Using tongs, dip the towel into the oil. Rub the clean grill grate with the oiled towel ensuring good coverage of the cooking surface.
  • Preheat gas grill to 375°F to 400°F. If using charcoal, get the fire hot enough that you can only keep your hand above the grill surface for a about 3 seconds. If you feel it’s needed, carefully rub the grill grate again with the oiled paper towel.
  • Place the burgers on the grill and don’t turn until they easily release and are well charred on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Turn the burgers and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Serve on a toasted bun with lettuce, our celery topper and more crumbled blue cheese. Sprinkle with more Buffalo sauce as desired.
