Buffalo Chicken Burgers with Whipped Feta

March 6, 2026 by [email protected] Leave a Comment

These Buffalo Chicken Burgers with Whipped Feta are the perfect combination of spicy, juicy chicken and smooth, tangy whipped feta. Inspired by classic buffalo-style flavors, this burger delivers heat, richness, and freshness in every bite.

Ground chicken is seasoned and shaped into tender burger patties, then cooked until golden and juicy. The whipped feta adds a creamy Mediterranean-style contrast that balances the spicy buffalo flavor beautifully.

Perfect for weeknight dinners, summer grilling, or casual gatherings, these burgers are both satisfying and surprisingly easy to make.


Ingredients

For the Chicken Burgers

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 2 tablespoons buffalo sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Whipped Feta

  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove

For Serving

  • Burger buns
  • Lettuce leaves
  • Extra buffalo sauce (optional)

Instructions

1. Make the Chicken Patties

In a large bowl, mix ground chicken, buffalo sauce, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties.

Tip: Make a small indent in the center of each patty to help it cook evenly.


2. Cook the Chicken Burgers

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Cook the patties for 4–5 minutes per side, until fully cooked and golden brown.

Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

Remove from heat and let rest for 2 minutes.


3. Prepare Whipped Feta

In a blender or food processor, combine:

  • Feta cheese
  • Greek yogurt
  • Olive oil
  • Lemon juice
  • Garlic

Blend until smooth and creamy.


4. Assemble the Burgers

Spread whipped feta on the bottom bun.

Add lettuce, chicken burger patty, and extra buffalo sauce if desired.

Cover with the top bun and serve.


Tips for Best Results

🔥 Do not overmix chicken mixture to keep patties tender.
🥣 Whip feta until smooth for a restaurant-style texture.
🌶️ Adjust buffalo sauce according to spice preference.
🍔 Toast burger buns lightly for better structure.


Variations

Spicy Buffalo Burger

Add cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture.

Extra Creamy Version
