Ingredients
  

FOR THE PIMENTO CHICKEN PATTIES:

  • 1 lb. Ground Chicken, 92% Lean
  • 1 tbsp. Dijon Mustard
  • 1/2 tsp. Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp. Cayenne
  • 2 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 1 cup Pimento Cheese
  • 1 tbsp. Salted Butter

TO ASSEMBLE THE BURGERS:

  • 4 Brioche Buns, toasting optional
  • 8 slices Cooked Bacon
  • Dill Pickle Chips, as needed
  • 2 cups Shredded Green Leaf Lettuce
  • 2 Green Onions, sliced thin
  • Spicy Ranch Dressing, as needed

Instructions
 

  • Gently mix the ground chicken, dijon, paprika, cayenne, garlic, and pimento cheese in a large bowl. Divide mixture and form into four patties. 
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the patties for about 4 - 5 minutes per side, or until internal temperature has reached 165F. 
  • While the burger patties rest for a few minutes, go ahead and toast the buns if you’d like. Then assemble with bacon, pickles, lettuce, green onions, and drizzle with desired amount of spicy ranch. Serve immediately.
