Buffalo Chicken Lasagna Burger
Ingredients:
For the Buffalo Chicken Patties:
1 lb (450g) ground chicken
1/4 cup buffalo wing sauce (your favorite brand)
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
For the Lasagna Layers:
4 cooked lasagna noodles
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 cup marinara sauce
1/4 cup buffalo sauce (for drizzling)
For Assembly:
4 burger buns
Blue cheese dressing or ranch dressing
Lettuce leaves
Sliced tomatoes (optional)
Fresh basil for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Buffalo Chicken Patties:
In a large bowl, mix together the ground chicken, buffalo wing sauce, breadcrumbs, shredded mozzarella, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until combined.
Form the mixture into 4 burger patties.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken patties for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Set aside.
Prepare the Lasagna Layers:
In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and Italian seasoning.
Lay out the cooked lasagna noodles. Spread a thin layer of the cheese mixture on each noodle, then roll them up to create mini lasagna rolls.
Assemble the Lasagna Burger:
On the bottom of each burger bun, place a lettuce leaf.
Add the buffalo chicken patty on top of the lettuce.
Place a lasagna roll on top of the patty and drizzle it with a little marinara sauce and extra buffalo sauce.
Add a dollop of blue cheese or ranch dressing for that classic buffalo chicken flavor.
Optionally, top with sliced tomatoes and fresh basil leaves.
Place the top of the bun on the burger to complete the assembly.
Serve:
Serve the Buffalo Chicken Lasagna Burgers immediately with extra buffalo sauce, ranch, or blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping.
