Buffalo Chicken Burgers with Whipped Feta Spread
Easy and amazing buffalo chicken burgers! Piled high with crisp lettuce, a whipped feta spread, sitting atop of toasted brioche bun. The post Buffalo Chicken Burgers with Whipped Feta Spread appeared first on Pinch of Yum.
These Buffalo Chicken Burgers Are Hitting Just Right.
Everyone at the office ate A FULL BURGER for lunch last week. Normally our shoot days involve a bite here, a bite there. But these guys went down fast and furious and with a lot of vocal appreciation.
Bjork mentioned how much he liked them at least 7 times. I went back for seconds. So maybe buffalo chicken burgers are my new favorite meal?
The flavor is SO GOOD – slightly bitey with the heat from the buffalo sauce, but not aggressively hot. And if we get out the ranch dressing, my kids even love them. You brush them with butter at the end, add the tang of the feta spread, pile some cooling lettuce on there and tuck it into a toasted brioche bun? Game over.
Can we also take a moment to just appreciate that they’re so easy to make? If you pick up a store-bought feta spread, like the new whipped feta one from Trader Joe’s, it’s even faster.
These go perfectly with a Simple Green Salad, or sheet pan Sweet Potato Fries, or Liz’s Roasted Broccoli!
I hope you love them!
