Buffalo Chicken Burger

These have fast become my husband's favorite - we literally fight over the left overs.


Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground chicken - I've been buying 98% fat free and very happy with it.
  • 1/3 cup of hot sauce - I use Franks Hot Sauce. 
  • 4 Light burger buns
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika 
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
  • 4 wedges laughing cow blue cheese
  • 4 tsp fresh blue cheese crumbles
  • Lettuce, tomato, onion - whatever you'd like to top your burger with. Though we eat ours plain
Servings: Recipe makes 4 burgers, 1 burger per serving

Instructions:
  1. In a small bowl, combine ground chicken, hot sauce, chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Mix well - I've found that a rubber spatula works well to blend everything perfectly. 
  2. Divide mixture into 4 equal parts and form into thin patties. 
  3. Cook in a skillet on medium-high heat until juices run clear, 6-8 minutes per side.
  4. Remove the cooked burgers and place them on buns
  5. Spread 1 laughing cow blue cheese wedge per burger
  6. Sprinkle 1 tsp of blue cheese crumbles
  7. Add lettuce, tomato, onion... whatever makes your burger perfect.
I'm able to make these delightful burgers for 7 WW points+ per burger. Be sure to plug your ingredients into your PP calculator or recipe builder to track how they work out for you.
