Buffalo Chicken Burgers in Hot Sauce Gravy with Blue Cheese Dressing

This is a yummy twist on buffalo wings using ground chicken instead of ground beef.

Yields 4 burgers

For Burger:

2 pounds ground chicken
A palmful grill seasoning
A palmful of buffalo wing seasoning
1/4 cup hot sauce
1/4 cup (about a palmful) chives plus extra for garnish, chopped
1/4 cup (about a handful) parsley, chopped
2 cloves garlic, grated

For Burger Coating:
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup hot sauce

For Dressing:

1 cup mild blue cheese
4 tablespoons buttermilk
2 tablespoons sour cream
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste

In a large bowl, mix the chicken, grill seasoning, buffalo wing seasoning, hot sauce, chives, parsley, garlic, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Form 4 large patties.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with two tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil, 2 turns around the pan. Sauté the burgers about 5 minutes on each side, until cooked through.

In a bowl, break up blue cheese and whisk in buttermilk. Add the remainder of the ingredients and mix to a chunky consistency. Add salt and pepper to taste.

In a small saucepan, melt butter and blend in flour with whisk creating a rue. Add 1/2 cup hot sauce and mix with whisk to thicken. Take cooked burgers and coat them with the hot sauce gravy.

Once burgers are cooked and coated, place bottom of bun on a plate, then put the burger on top of the bun, garnish with extra chives, smother in blue cheese dressing and top burger with bun.

Add carrots and celery on the side if desired.
